Chicken Suya Skewers

Ingredients

Garlic Powder2 tbsp
Onion Powder2 tbsp

Ground Ginger2 tbsp
Ground White Pepper2 tbsp
Chicken Stock Cube1
Sugar1 tbsp
Boneless Skinless Chicken Thigh1 kg
Kuli Kuli3 tbsp
Salt1 tsp
Olive Oil

Fresh Coriander

Method

1

If you don’t have metal skewers, soak wooden or bamboo ones in water for at least 30 mins.

2

Heat the oven to 225°C. Add all the dry spices into a large bowl with the kuli kuli. Stir through the stock powder, sugar and salt. Stir together and set aside ⅙ of it to use as a garnish, later.

3

Optional : Wash your chicken with either lemon, salt or vinegar and water. Use a kitchen roll to dry the chicken.

4

Dice the chicken into 3cm chunks and tip it into the spice bowl. Pour a drizzle of olive oil on top and mix together. Leave to marinate for 30 mins.

5

Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers and place onto an oiled baking tray. Roast in the oven for 15 mins, turning halfway through.

6

Switch the oven to grill and cook the chicken skewers under the grill for 5-10 mins, turning them halfway through, until starting to char on all sides. Each grill works differently, so keep an eye on them.

7

Transfer the skewers to plates and sprinkle over the leftover seasoning. Top with some diced tomato, red onion and coriander, if using.

8

Plate up the ting and tell your belly it’s time to chow down.
