Makes 10-12 skewers
An Original Recipe by Lorraine Elliott
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
- 4 skinless chicken thigh fillets
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
- 2 tablespoons finely grated fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- Oil for drizzling
- Flesh from 2 mango cheeks (around 1 cup)
- 2 tablespoons chilli garlic sauce
Step 1 - Soak wooden skewers in a bowl of water. Cut the chicken thighs into long strips. Marinate with the garlic, ginger, soy sauce, honey and turmeric for 30 minutes or you can leave this in the fridge all day and just cook them when you get home.
Step 2 - Blend the mango meat and the chilli garlic sauce. Reserve 1/2 cup out of the total sauce.
Step 3 - Preheat grill to very hot and line a tray with foil and brush with oil. Thread the chicken onto the skewers and place on the prepared tray. Brush with the 1/2 cup mango chilli sauce and drizzle with oil. Grill until caramelised and you get charred bits. Serve with extra mango chilli sauce.
