⏱️ About 30 minutes · Recipe by the Aussie BBQ team

Ingredients

• 720 g chicken thigh, diced
• 1 lemon, juice and zest
• 4 clove garlic, crushed
• 40 ml olive oil
• 8 skewers (soak wooden ones)

Method

1. At home, mix lemon, garlic, oil, salt and pepper and toss the chicken through. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
2. Thread onto skewers and pack flat in a container in the esky.
3. Cook on a hot oiled plate for 8–10 minutes, turning every 2 minutes.
4. Squeeze over extra lemon to serve.

🧊 Food safety

Chicken must reach 75°C in the thickest part and the juices run clear. Throw away leftover marinade that touched raw chicken. Keep raw meat in an esky at 5°C or colder until it goes on the plate. Use separate tongs and plates for raw and cooked meat.
