Grilled Chicken Skewers
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup sake
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 (2 inch) piece fresh ginger root, grated
  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cubed
  • 3 leeks, white part only, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
Instructions
1
Combine the ingredients in a medium-sized dish, blending them harmoniously together. The mixture should include the sake, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, and ginger. Introduce chicken to this blend, allowing it to mingle with the other ingredients for 15 minutes.
2
Preheat your oven's broiler setting. Prepare six metal skewers by greasing them lightly, then thread the skewers with alternating pieces of chicken and leek. This will create a visually appealing arrangement on a baking sheet or broiling pan, which should then be brushed with the marinade.
3
Place the skewers under the oven's broiler and cook for approximately 5 minutes. After this initial cooking period, baste the skewers with the remaining marinade and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Finally, discard any excess marinade that remains.
