Ingredients

• 600 g chicken breast fillet (pre‑cooked)

Instructions

1. 1.

   Soak wooden skewers in water. Wash the chicken, pat dry and cut into cubes. Peel and chop the garlic cloves, then add them with the chicken cubes to a bowl. Rinse the lemongrass and peel the ginger; finely chop both.

2. 2.

   Combine the soy sauce, lemon zest, lemongrass, apple juice, coriander leaves, ginger, and star anise with the chicken in the bowl. Cover and marinate for about 4 hours, turning occasionally.

   Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers and finish each skewer with a lime wedge. Heat butter in a pan, add the peppercorns, and sear the chicken skewers on all sides. Serve hot over fresh salad if desired.
