Marinade
Combine marinade ingredients together in a dish or bag big enough to hold the chicken. Slice the chicken into long strips or 1" cubes. Place the chicken in the marinade and cover. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
Soak bamboo skewers for at least 30 minutes. Thread chicken onto the skewers. Grill or broil for 6 minutes or until cooked through, turning at least once.
Serve with Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce (recipe follows) over coconut rice.

In a small pot, bring coconut milk to a simmer over moderate-high heat. Add chili paste and curry paste, cook for 4 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients and cook for another 1 - 2 minutes, stirring to bring it together into a smooth sauce. Pour into a heatproof bowl and set aside to cool.
This sauce is best warm but it needs time for the flavors to blend. Try to make this at least 30 - 60 minutes ahead and reheat it a little just before serving if necessary. It was fantastic the next day.
Edited later: I must have been tired when I posted this, this recipe has been corrected slightly. I would also recommend trying palm sugar if you have it available instead of brown sugar for a more authentic flavor.
