For marinade, whisk coconut milk, brown sugar, cilantro, soy sauce, garlic paste, turmeric, salt, and Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl. Add chicken and toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.

For peanut sauce, add coconut milk, peanut butter, water, white vinegar, ginger paste, red pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, black pepper, cumin, turmeric, sugar, and salt to a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over low heat and stir until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

For chicken, heat a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Pour in a small amount of oil, then add chicken. Cook, stirring frequently, until chicken is no longer pink at the center and juices run clear, about 5 minutes.
