450 g chicken breasts -- skinned and boned

30 ml lemon juice
50 ml dark soy sauce

lemon juice, soy sauce, honey, peanut butter and water. Bring to
a boil, stirring constantly, then reduce heat and add as many
chicken skewers as will fit without crowding. Simmer 10 minutes,

Author's Notes:
I've made this recipe many times and it's ALWAYS a big hit.
Sambal oelek can be found in an Oriental Market. It has a lot of
zip so adjust the quantity as you like. I add a little more
peanut butter than it calls for and I don't pour all the sauce
over the chicken. I put some in a dipping bowl. Also, be sure to
use the smaller skewers.
Difficulty : easy.
Precision : measure ingredients.
