Time 20m

Yield Makes 20

Number Of Ingredients 11

thumb-sized piece ginger , grated
1 large garlic clove , grated
1 tsp honey
1½ tsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
½ lime , juiced
1 tbsp sesame seeds
1 skinless chicken breast , cut into 10 pieces
10 raw king prawns
1 broccoli head , cut into 20 florets
20 cocktail skewers

Steps:

  • Combine the ginger, garlic, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice and sesame seeds. Divide between two bowls, then add the chicken pieces to one and the prawns to the other. Toss both mixtures well, then leave to marinate in the fridge for 15 mins.
  • Cook the chicken in a frying pan over a medium-high heat for 3 mins, then push to one side and add the prawns to the other side of the pan. Cook for 2 mins until the prawns are pink and the chicken is cooked through (use two separate pans if anyone you're cooking for has an allergy or is a pescatarian). Put the broccoli in a microwaveable bowl with a splash of water, then cover and cook on high for 5 mins.
  • Thread half of the skewers with chicken and broccoli and the other half with prawns and broccoli.
