1 T. oil
1 c. onion, finely chopped
1 c. onion, finely chopped
2 T. brown sugar
1/4 c. chili sauce
1 T. lime juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. allspice
1/2 tsp. ginger
1/4-1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Soak 8 (12") bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. Heat oil in large pot. Add onion; cook till tender. Stir in brown sugar, chili sauce, lime juice and seasonings. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Cut each chicken breast into 1/2" lengthwise strips. Reserve a little for basting then add to spice mixture once it cools enough not to cook the meat; toss to coat. Weave chicken strips onto skewers. Grill on heated grill for 7-10 minutes over medium heat or until chicken is no longer pink, turning once.
This looks like a great recipe to try! Back to some of your other posts, I like the coupon idea for restaurants. I'm terrible at remembering my coupons if I don't have them in something. It's a great idea and I think I have some of those picture albums waiting to be made useful.
ReplyDeleteI love your post about standing at the bar. Your blog is great.
I remember this recipe from my childhood. I think my mom and I found it in a small paperback recipe booklet at the checkout of our local grocery store. So glad you posted it. I can’t wait to make it again after all these years!
