High FODMAP
Chicken Satay
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Chicken satay relies on a fragrant marinade of lemongrass, turmeric, coconut milk, and alliums before being skewered and grilled. The dipping sauce traditionally features crushed peanuts, shallots, garlic, and tamarind simmered to a rich consistency. While coconut milk and turmeric are low FODMAP, the shallot and garlic base dominates the sauce profile. Restaurant versions rarely adjust traditional ratios for sensitive digestive systems.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Substituting shallots and garlic with scallion greens preserves the aromatic complexity safely. Limiting sauce consumption to a single teaspoon reduces hidden fructan intake significantly. Preparing the marinade at home with certified ingredients ensures complete transparency. Always verify whether peanut sauce contains hidden onion derivatives or wheat thickeners.
