Asian hot chilli sauce 

• Mix the first 8 ingredients, add the chicken and toss all the pieces to coat them. Leave to marinate for 15 minutes. To make the sauce put all the ingredients in a small pan, add enough boiling water to make a dipable sauce and heat. Add chilli sauce to give it as much heat as you like.

• Thread the chicken onto metal or soaked wooden skewers then griddle or grill them, turning, until they’re golden and cooked all the way through.

• Toss the cucumber and shallot with a little vinegar and serve this alongside the chicken and peanut sauce.
