How To Make chicken on a stick (sallye)

Step 1

Make the marinade: Place all the ingredients for marinade into blender, and process until mixture is smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on the solids to break them down. Let the marinade cool. Note: the marinade may be made 2 days in advance and kept covered and chilled

Step 2

Make the dipping sauce: Place all ingredients for the dipping sauce into blender and process until mixture is smooth and transfer to a bowl. Note: The sauce may be made 2 days in advance and kept covered and chilled
Step 3

Prepare the chicken: Cut the chicken lengthwise into 1/4" strips, and thread each piece lengthwise onto a skewer and place in a large shallow bowl Pour the marinade over the chicken, coating the chicken well, and cover and chill for approximately one hour. Do not marinate for over 3 hours or meat will break down
Step 4

Grill the chicken with the marinade clinging to it on an oiled rack set 5-6 inches over glowing coals for 1-1/2 minute per side, or until chicken is cooked through If you don't have a grill, you may broil in your oven. Place chicken on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper, place pan about 6"-8" under broiler, and cook 1-1/2 minutes per side until chicken is cooked through
Step 5

This is a great dish for football parties, but you might need to make a double batch, as they go quickly.
