Sticky Chicken Skewers

These skewers are finger lickingly good!

Preparation:

1. Mix together the sugar, minced garlic and ginger, sherry and soy sauce to a smooth paste. Stir in the chicken and leave to marinate for 10 minutes (if you have time, make this up the night before and leave to marinate overnight).
2. Thread the chicken onto six metal or wooden skewers.
3. Preheat the grill and arrange the skewers on a foil-lined tray. Grill for 5-6 minutes then turn over, baste with more marinade and grill for a further 5 minutes. Serve immediately on top of stir-fried noodles with julienne of red pepper, carrot, shredded spring onion and fresh coriander. Serve with sweet chilli dipping sauce.

Useful tip:

If you are using wooden skewers soak them in water for at least 30 minutes beforehand. This is necessary to stop skewers from burning and meat from sticking to the skewers.
