cumin chicken skewers
Children love food on sticks! The chicken has been marinated in yoghurt overnight, which makes it soft and succulent - perfect for younger children who sometimes find breast meat hard work. My daughter says this is her favourite way of eating chicken breast.
Ingredients
Serves 2-4 children depending on age.
400g chicken breast fillets
4 tablespoon of full-fat Greek yoghurt
1 heaped teaspoon ground cumin
juice of 1 lemon
Method
Mix the yoghurt, cumin and lemon juice together in a bowl.
Add the chicken fillets to the bowl and mix thoroughly.
Place in the fridge overnight.
Thread the chicken onto skewers. If using wooden skewers soak in water for 10 minutes first so they don't burn.
Bake in the oven until cooked.
The Health Boost Tip
The long marinade time really is worth it for this dish. Prep the night before, it only takes 5 minutes, and then you just have to bake the next day - ready on the table in about 15 minutes.
