While the chicken marinates, make the peanut sauce. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the peanut butter, coconut milk, tamari, maple syrup, lime juice, garlic-infused oil, and red pepper flakes. Stir constantly until the sauce is smooth and just beginning to bubble at the edges, about 3–4 minutes. Whisk in water 1 tablespoon at a time until the sauce is pourable but still coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and set aside.
