Chicken skewers, off the stick
- Age: 2–3 years (Little cook)
- Texture: Finger food
- Prep: 10 min
- Cook: 12 min
- Makes: 2 portions
Ingredients
- 2 chicken thighs, boneless, in strips
- 2 tbsp plain yoghurt
- 1 tsp mild paprika
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1 squeeze lemon
Contains: Milk
Method
- Your child stirs the yoghurt, spices and lemon; add the chicken and leave 20 minutes.
- Thread onto skewers and grill 12 minutes, turning, until cooked through.
- Slide off the skewers and cool before serving — never hand over the stick.
