Lemongrass Chicken Kebabs
Oh yum. These are the best. Fragrant, pretty simple with a bit of forethought (those soaked skewers for example) and so family friendly. Skewered!
I do love a kebab, skewer, shawarma, kebob, you name it, I will eat it. There are so many versions from around the world, meat on a stick or skewer basically, flamed, toasty and delish. These are kind of Thai flavoured and really you could tweak to taste. But nonetheless, easy to make, kid friendly and these are not too spicy. Get your rice on. Toss a very simple salad, the dinner is ready!
