Simple and quick chicken and ham skewers served with a spicy peanut butter dipping sauce - cooked by Phil Vickery on This Morning.
Ingredients
- 120 g4¼ oz crunchy peanut butter
- Pinch of chilli powder
- Juice of 2 lemons
- 2 tbsp finely chopped coriander, optional
For the skewers:
- 2 skinned chicken breasts, each cut in 6 thin strips
- 6 slices air-dried ham, each cut into 2 lengthways
- Vegetable oil, for greasing
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 8 wooden skewers
Method: How to make Grilled chicken and air dried ham skewers
Soak the skewers in cold water. To make the sauce, place the peanut butter, chilli powder, 8-10 tablespoons water and the lemon juice in a small pan and gently heat until you have a sauce consistency. Add the coriander, transfer to an airtight lidded container and chill until needed.
Thread the chicken on the skewers, then wrap the ham strips around the chicken. Secure either end of the ham on the skewer.
Heat a griddle pan, or, light a disposable barbeque and when a few tips of the charcoal are still black, but the rest are grey; it is ready to cook on.
Lightly oil the chicken and the barbeque with a little oil dabbed on kitchen paper. Season the kebabs and cook for 8-10 minutes on each side, until cooked through.
Serve hot, with the chilled peanut sauce separately (you may need to add a little water to the sauce to thin it out after it has been chilled.)
