INGREDIENTS:

Chicken & Tomato Skewers

• 4 chicken breasts, cut into bite sized cubes

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Mix all the marinade ingredients together in a bowl and add the chicken and tomatoes. Cover with cling film and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
2. Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
3. Cook the rice and broad beans according to the package instructions. Cut the peppers and scallions into bite sized pieces. When the rice and beans are cooked, run under cold water to cool and then add the remaining vegetables. Garnish with parsley.
