Makes approx 8 skewers

 

Serves 2-3

 

10 minutes prep time

 

Ingredients

 

2 chicken breasts, cut into long slithers 

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp ground coriander 

1 tsp turmeric

1 onion, grated or finely chopped

1 tbsp unrefined sugar, maple or honey

8 wooden skewers

 

Method

 

Preheat the oven to 200C.

 

Place your chicken pieces into a bowl or plastic bag and add all the spices, onion and sugar and massage into the meat. For a stronger flavour, leave for at least 30 minutes or in the fridge overnight (however if pushed for time you can cook them straight away).

 

Lightly oil a baking sheet and place in the oven about 5 minutes before using so it can heat up.

 

Next, take pieces of your marinated meat and weave through onto your skewers. Do not squash the meat up too much as it makes quite dense eating and takes longer to cook through. Place onto your preheated baking sheet and cook for 5 minutes, then turn and cook for another 5 minutes. They should take on a bit of a golden brown colour from the heat of the baking sheet.  Always check the meat is cooked all the way through before serving.

 

Peanut Dipping Sauce

 

160g crunchy peanut butter 

60ml maple syrup
20ml white wine vinegar

A splash of water to loosen

 

Simply place all the ingredients into a small saucepan, put on a gentle heat and stir. It will loosen a lot and become more sauce like as it warms however if you want it to be a touch runnier just add a splash of water. You can prepare this in advance and keep in an airtight container up to a couple of days in advance.

 

This is best served warm and is great with our Green Rice.
