Preparation
Step 1
Cut the chicken into 2cm / 4/5" cubes.
Step 2
Mix Marinade ingredients together in a bowl until smooth.
Step 3
Transfer 4 tablespoons of the Marinade into a small bowl ("Reserved Marinade", to use for basting).
Step 4
Add chicken into the bowl with the remaining Marinade. Mix to coat and set aside for 20 minutes to marinade (up to overnight). (Note 3)
Step 5
Thread chicken onto skewers, discard marinade in the bowl. I used 14 small ones about 18cm/7" long, 4 pieces of chicken on each.
Step 6
Heat oil on a BBQ or skillet over medium heat. Place skewers on the BBQ and cook the first side for 2 1/2 minutes, then turn the skewers.
Step 7
Baste the COOKED side that is now facing up generously with the reserved Reserved Marinade. After 2 1/2 minutes, turn the skewers and quickly baste the other side generously with the Reserved Marinade. Turn immediately. Cook for just a few seconds, then transfer to a plate. (Note 4)
Step 8
Baste the skewers on the plate one more time with the Reserved Marinade, then serve.
Step 9
I served mine with Cilantro/Coriander Lime Rice (Note 5)
