Yakitori Kebabs With Chicken and Vegetables

Submitted by English_Rose

"Tasty and low fat kebabs. If you are short of time, marinate the chicken for just 20 minutes - it will still absorb a lot of the flavours. Try using a different selection of vegetables, such as yellow peppers and zucchini. Time does not include marinating. Serve with egg noodles garnished with scallions."

 

• Ready In: 25mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons mirin
• 1 tablespoon clear honey
• 1 inch piece gingerroot, peeled and finely grated
• 1 garlic clove, crushed
• 14 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1in chunks
• 4 scallions, cut into 3 pieces
• 1 red pepper, deseeded and cut into 1in pieces

directions

1. In a large bowl, mix together the soy sauce, mirin, honey, ginger and garlic.
2. Add the chicken and stir well. Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for 1-2 hours or overnight.
3. Preheat the broiler to high. Thread the chicken, scallions and pepper pieces alternately, dividing them between 4 metal skewers, reserving the marinade.
4. Place the kebabs on the grill rack and brush liberally with the marinade. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with the marinade.
5. The chicken should be cooked until the juices run clear and there is no pink meat; the vegetables should be lightly charred. Serve immediately.
