Prepare the marinade by combining coconut milk, soy sauce, peanut butter, lime juice, brown sugar, curry powder, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl.
Add the chicken strips to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight.
Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
Thread the marinated chicken strips onto the soaked bamboo skewers, placing them close but not overcrowding.
Grill the skewers for about 4-6 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and has nice grill marks.
While the skewers are grilling, prepare the peanut sauce by mixing together leftover marinade in a saucepan over medium heat until it thickens slightly.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and serve them hot with the peanut sauce on the side.
