Step 1

Add all ingredients in re-sealable bag. Add the chicken and let marinate for 4 to 24 hours.

Remove from marinade. Skewer chicken onto sugar cane skewers and place onto preheated grill. Grill on both sides until marked and cooked through. Place the skewers onto a serving platter and squeeze 1/2 lemon over the finished chicken. Garnish with chopped peanuts and scallions.
