Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Combine Marinade ingredients in a bowl. Remove ½ cup of Marinade (for basting) and set aside in fridge. Add chicken, cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight. But even 20 minutes is enough - compensate with extra basting.
Drain and discard marinade. Thread chicken onto skewers.
Heat oil in a large skillet or on outdoor BBQ over medium high heat. Cook skewers, turning to cook all sides, and basting generously with reserved Marinade. (Note 1)
Serve with Coconut Lime Rice.
