Creamy Thai Peanut Sauce Recipe: Dairy-free Deliciousness That Belongs On Everything (10 Minutes, 7 Ingredients) Sauces/Condiments Asian Recipes Thai Recipes Budget Recipes Low Sodium Recipes

Sometimes you just need a good, creamy flavorful sauce to make a difference in a dish. Thai peanut sauce is a popular dipping sauce throughout Asia, and you can find it at many restaurants in the U.S. Why? Because the dairy-free, creamy peanut butter sauce recipe is a flavor explosion that complements so many different proteins.

This quick and easy Thai peanut sauce recipe is one I like to serve with my beef satay, but it is equally delicious with chicken satay, grilled chicken breasts, grilled meats or even grilled vegetables. There's not much I won't dunk into this sauce!

All you need to make this creamy peanut sauce recipe is red curry paste, coconut milk, peanut butter (read about the health benefits of peanut butter), granulated sugar, honey, dark soy sauce and apple cider vinegar. Because we use coconut milk in this Asian peanut butter sauce, it is dairy-free.
