Sticky Ginger and Honey Chicken Skewers With Noodle Salad recipe by Cherrypick

These ginger and honey chicken skewers are perfect as a summertime dinner, served on a bed of marinated noodles. This is a really tasty recipe, perfect for the whole family.

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Put the chicken in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the garlic, ginger, sesame oil, honey, soy sauce and lime juice. Add a third of this to the chicken and save the rest for the noodles. Mix everything together and chill overnight or for a few hours.

Step 2

Bring a saucepan of water to a simmer. Add the mangetout and cook for 1 min, then drain and rinse under cold water. Toss the cooked noodles with the mangetout, carrot matchsticks, remaining marinade, coriander and sesame seeds.

Step 3

Heat the grill to medium. Thread the chicken onto three or four long skewers, put on a flat baking tray and grill for 12 mins, turning the skewers halfway, until cooked. Serve the skewers on top of a platter of the noodles with extra lime wedges for squeezing over.
