Tips:
- Use a variety of chicken pieces. This will give your sekuwa a more complex flavor and texture. For example, you could use a combination of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thighs, and wings.
- Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors to penetrate the chicken and make it more tender. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple one made with yogurt, garlic, ginger, and turmeric is a good place to start.
- Cook the chicken over a hot grill or in a hot pan. This will help to sear the chicken and give it a nice char. If you are using a grill, make sure to preheat it to medium-high heat before adding the chicken.
- Serve the chicken sekuwa with a variety of dipping sauces. This will allow your guests to customize their meal to their own taste. Some popular dipping sauces for chicken sekuwa include tomato chutney, mint chutney, and tamarind chutney.
