Ingredients

Serves: 4

Florette Chinese Inspired Gourmet Slaw

3 oranges, zested and juiced, plus extra slices to garnish

2 limes, zested and juiced

1 tsp ground black pepper

2 birdseye chillies, each sliced into 3 pieces

2 cloves garlic , finely chopped or grated

2 tbsp reduced-salt soy sauce

6 tbsp maple syrup

4 chicken thigh fillets, flattened, sliced into 3 strips

In a large bowl, combine the zest and juice of 2 oranges and 1 lime, the pepper, birdseye chillies, garlic, soy sauce and 2 tbsp of maple syrup. Add the chicken, toss to coat, cover and chill for at least 1 hr.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and thread onto skewers in ‘S’ shapes; set aside. Pour the marinade into a pan (strain the chillies for a milder glaze). Add the zest and juice from the remaining orange, plus the remaining 2 tbsp maple syrup; bring to a rolling boil. Reduce by half and set aside.
Cook the skewers under a hot grill or on a barbecue, turning every 2 mins, for 10 mins or until cooked through and charred; brush generously with the glaze for the final turn.
Pile the skewers onto a platter, glazing once more. Garnish with the orange slices and serve with the slaw alongside.
