Chicken Yakitori
These little skewers of succulent marinated chicken are fantastic any time any day. Make a whole lot of them, they are great to take to work for lunch and if you pop a few in your childrens lunch boxes they will be very grateful… you may even get a car wash. These are great for the stove or the braai, can be prepared ahead of time and then take just 5 minutes to cook. (2 people)
What you need
500g chicken breast halved and sliced about 4cm thick
4 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
4 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
1 teasponn fresh grated ginger
Oil
Bamboo skewers
The process
You want to split the chicken breasts through the center and then cut into strips, so each breast should give you 4 x 4cm wide strips.
Mix all of the marinate ingredients together in a bowl, give it a whick and add the chicken. Mix the chicken around a bit to cover each piece in the marinate. Cover with cling film and place in the fridge for a few hours, overnight if you can.
Thread the chicken onto skewers and cook in a hot grill pan for about 2 minutes on each side. (soak the skewers in water if you are doing them on a braai)
Serve them with chinese fried noodles or egg fried rice, or just as they are for finger food.
These are very good.

Hi, we have a fantastic Thai Restaurant in Richards Bay. Cannot always afford to go there and I am wondering if u have any recipes?
it sounds out of this world,though im a bit confused…call it blonde intuition.but wen u say grill u mean the oven ryt?
Hi dee, I mean in a grill pan, the one with ridges on it but frying in a flat pan will do just as well. They can also be grilled in the oven but the pan works best. Not a blonde moment after all.. just me, sorry for the confusion.. Cheers G
Hi there, with regards to veggies on a braai I thought I’d share one of my favourites.
Using red and yellow peppers, carefully cut off the tops, making sure to keep the pepper and the top in 2 whole pieces.
Make up a mix of corn, feta (or cheddar if preferred), finely chopped onion, seasoning.
Stuff the peppers and use toothpicks to stick the tops back on.
I just keep turning these on the grill straight over the coals….. yum!!!
Hi Lids, that sounds amazing.. stuffed peppers are great, thank you so much. Have a great evening G
Hi Graham
Hope you are well.
Do you have any recipes for braai-ing veggies etc?
many thanks
Ros
Hi Ros, Corn on the cob is the obvious one, season and just pop on the braai but for the rest I cannot say I have tried, roasting veggies always goes well with a braai. there is this warm potato salad that is awesome
http://cookbook.co.za/vegetables/warm-roast-potato-salad/ and you could use this recipe without the pasta for the veg.
