Chicken Satay
The satétje is a popular fried snack that originated in Indonesian cuisine. In the 1960s and 1970s, the idea of skewered grilled meat was transformed into a deep-fried version in the Netherlands, typically made with chicken or pork. The crispy exterior and juicy interior, paired with a spicy satay sauce, quickly made it a favorite in snack bars. The satétje has since become a classic and a beloved choice for many.
