Grilled Chicken Ribbons

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup soy sauce
4 cloves of garlic pressed
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 teaspoons ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
Sliced green onion tops for garnish

Combine all ingredients except breasts and onions in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat 1 minute or until smooth. Cool. Remove garlic from sauce and discard. Reserve half of sauce for dipping. Cut chicken lengthwise into 1 inch wide strips. Thread onto 8 metal or bamboo skewers. (soak bamboo skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent them from burning.)

Oil hot grid to help prevent sticking. Grill chicken on covered grill over medium high heat for 6 to 8 minutes until chicken is cooked through, turning once. Baste with sauce once or twice during cooking. Serve with reserved sauce garnished with sliced green onion tops. Makes 4 servings
