• Cover with clingfilm/plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
• Place the wooden skewers into a bowl of water to prevent burning when cooking.
• Turn on your grill to a medium to medium high heat. While it is heating up add the chicken and pepper slices onto the wet skewers.
• Lightly oil the grill tray and place the skewers on the tray.
• Place the tray under the grill turning over after about 6 minutes for a further 6 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
• If you are cooking on a bbq, then lightly oil the bbq grate and place the skewers on turning every few minutes until fully cooked. Use the leftover marinade to baste the chicken every turn.
