Flavour of the Month
This recipe shows an easy and tasty way to
add variety to your usual barbecue, and is sure to tempt even the most
traditional barbecue enthusiast! This recipe uses chicken, but it
can be easily substituted for pork, beef or tofu. Regardless of what ever
"meat" you choose, it can be threaded onto skewers and made into
kebabs. Chicken thigh fillets are ideal to grill using an indoor grill,
chargrill pan or barbecue as thigh fillets have lots of flavour and are very
tender. Chicken Yakitori is served with a green salad that has loads of taste
