12-14 skewers (optional)
400 grams of slice chicken breast
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar - unseasoned
2 tsp yellow curry powder
1 clove of garlic - chopped
1/2 tsp grated ginger
salt and pepper
Marinate the above ingredients for about an hour in a non-metal bowl. Soak 12-14 skewers in water for an hour as well. After chicken has marinaded for an hour, skewer up the strips. Then grill each skewer for about 4 minutes on each side. (You don't have to use the skewers. You can also just grill the strips.)
CUCUMBER SALAD
4 cups sliced cucumbers (approximately 3 cucumbers peeled and seeded)
1 tsp red chili flake
2 tbsp rice wine vinegar - unseasoned
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp orange zest
1/2 tsp water
2 drops of toasted sesame oil
Mix the above ingredients together in a glass bowl (something non metal), then cover and refrigerate for an hour. When ready to serve, sprinkle with:
1 tbsp fresh chopped cilantro
1 tbsp basil
Pack a 1 cup measuring cup with chopped cucumber salad and turn over onto plate to create a tower effect. Top with about 3 skewers or equivalent to 100 grams of chicken. Drizzle some of the juice from the salad dressing on top. You can add extra salt, pepper and curry powder if you'd like.
Makes 4 servings.
