Lemonade Chicken Skewers

Est. Time: 20-30 min  •  5 Preparation Steps

Chef's Menu Description

Chargrilled over glowing charcoal embers with an authentic smoky char, served with handcrafted accompaniments and savoury reductions.

Ingredients

  • • 1 kg chicken breast (cut into 21/2 cm (1 inch chunks))
  • • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • • 1 tbsp Henderson's relish (or Worcestershire Sauce)
  • • 1 tbsp lemon juice (or lime juice)
  • • 100 ml sugar-free lemon lime pop (like 7up Free or Sprite Zero)
  • • 4 garlic cloves (peeled and minced)
  • • 3 tbsp tomato purée
  • • 2 tsp granulated sweetener
  • • 1/2 tsp ground ginger

Preparation Steps

1
Phase 1

If using bamboo skewers, pop them in some water to soak.

2
Phase 2

Add all the ingredients to a large bowl and mix well so that the chicken is well coated. Cover the bowl and place in the fridge to marinate for 4-6 hours (or overnight is even better!).

3
Phase 3

Once the chicken is ready, thread it onto the skewers. We find using 8 skewers works well, so you have 2 skewers per person – you can do more small skewers if you prefer.

4
Phase 4

Place onto a hot barbecue for around 25-30 minutes, until the chicken has cooked through.If you want to cook these in the oven, place onto a foil lined baking tray. Place into an oven preheated to 180°C for 30 minutes, until cooked through.

Phase 5

Once cooked, serve with your choice of accompaniment.
