Dean shares his recipe for grilled Hawaiian chicken skewers & pizza
Ingredients:
For the marinade:
- Bottled teriyaki marinade or make it homemade
- 1½cupsketchup
- ¾cupsweet chilli sauce
- 1/3cupsoy sauce / tamari sauce
- 2tspcrushed garlic
- 2tspfinely minced/crushed ginger
- 1-2tspsalt
- Bamboo skewers
For the skewers
- 1½ lbschicken thighs(skinless, boneless) cut into chunks.
- 1freshpineapplepeeled, cored and cubed into chunks (canned pineapple chunks can fall apart when they’re grilled)
- 2red and/or green bell peppers,seeded and cubed into chunks
- 1sweet vidaliaonion,cubed into chunks (you can use whatever onion you like. I like vidalia best)
Instructions:
Combine all the marinade ingredients. Mix well. (Bottled marinade works fine too.)
Reserve one third of the marinade and pour the remaining marinade over the chicken thighs. Cover and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes but up to 24 hours in the fridge.
Soak bamboo skewers in boiling water for 10 minutes (or use metal skewers).
Thread the chicken, pineapple, onion and pepper onto the skewers then brush with the marinade that is left in the bowl the chicken was marinating in.
Pre-heat an outdoor grill or a grill pan on a stove and cook the skewers until golden brown and starting to caramelize on all sides and until the chicken is cooked through (approximately 10-15 minutes). Glaze with the reserved marinade while cooking.
Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
