Let’s prepare our chicken
Cut chicken breasts into thick cubes and put them into a bowl with a sauce. Mix them all. Cover with cling film and leave for at least 1 hour to marinate.
Heat the oven to 220C with a fan.
Line the tray with aluminium foil.
After chicken breast cubes are marinated impale them on skewers.
Put them on a baking tray.
Pour over the top the remaining marinade sauce.

Serve hot with baked potatoes or fresh bread on the side. Perfect addition to a healthy salad.
Tips
The sauce needs to be cooled down before combining it with the chicken, otherwise, the chicken will start to cook on the surface.
