  • Nut Free

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp Waitrose Japanese Soya Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Yutaka Japanese Mirin
  • 1 tbsp Waitrose Pure Clear Honey
  • 2.5cm piece root ginger, peeled and finely grated
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 400g pack Waitrose British Chicken Breast Chunks
  • 4 salad onions, each cut into 3 pieces
  • 1 Romano pepper, deseeded and cut into 2.5cm pieces

Method

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the soya sauce, mirin, honey, ginger and garlic. Add the chicken and stir well. Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for 1-2 hours or overnight.
  2. Preheat the grill to high. Thread the chicken, salad onions and pepper pieces alternately, dividing them between 4 metal skewers, reserving the marinade.
  3. 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. The chicken should be cooked until the juices run clear and there is no pink meat; the vegetables should be lightly charred. Serve immediately, with Waitrose Medium Egg Noodles, garnished with salad onions.
