knob
of fresh ginger, roughly chopped, plus extra to serve
1
orange, grated zest and juice
3
spring onions, roughly chopped
2
tbsp clear honey
1
tbsp light soy sauce
2
tbsp vegetable oil
4
small skinless boneless chicken breast fillets, cut into cubes
20
button mushrooms
20
cherry tomatoes
2
large red peppers, seeded and each cut into 10
Method
Grind
the garlic, ginger, orange zest and spring onions to a paste in a food
processor. Add the honey, orange juice, soy sauce and oil, then blend
again. Pour the mixture over the cubed chicken and leave to marinate for
at least 1 hr, but preferably overnight. Toss in the mushrooms for the
last half an hour so they take on some of the flavour, too.
Thread
the chicken, tomatoes, mushrooms and peppers onto 20 wooden skewers, then
cook on a griddle pan for 7-8 mins each side or until the chicken is thoroughly
cooked and golden brown. Turn the kebabs frequently and baste with the
marinade from time to time until evenly cooked. Arrange on a platter, scatter
with chopped spring onion and eat with your fingers.
