How To – assemble the chicken skewers from 30-Minute Meals

hi I’m Georgie from Jamie’s food team
and I’m going to show you how to skewer
chicken as she can see your chicken
breasts when laid out flat has got a
slightly fatter
top much pressure there and thinner not
so much meat at the bottom what you want
to do is lay your chicken breasts out so
they sort of topping and tailing so
backed up here thin same again the same
again so you’ve always got a really even
shape just there push them together
slightly I’m not going to do is get four
wooden skewers which I’ve been soaked in
water and the reason is you want them to
and clamp up and soak so they don’t
burnt as soon as they hit the heats
whether it’s a pan or an oven they won’t
set on fire so make sure they’ve been
soaking for at least 5-10 minutes and
lay your skewers on the top of your
flattened chicken breasts as a guide of
where you’re going to secure them give
them some even spacing like that and
then start the first one skewer through
all four chicken breasts making sure you
go through the middle like that push
them out again you want to keep them
quite even the same again this is a
great method and you could do this with
pork as well get some pork Phillips and
lay them out all four of them and do the
same thing the skewers it’s just a
really even way of making chicken kebabs
and for the final one
makes a flatten your breasts out again
make sure they’re not too scrunched up
together and then use your knife to cut
along the length of the skewer see have
four kabobs
cut all the way down
and again and they have a really great
and easy way of skewing chicken
