Shaokao Chicken Skewers

Barbequed skewers of chicken, diced lamb, various bits of offal or many other ingredients such as mushrooms and thinly sliced potato are very popular in Northern and Western China. This style of cooking (collectively known as 'shaokao'), together with the spicy seasonings sprinkled over to serve, are a legacy of the Mongolians who ruled huge parts of China for centuries, and whose cultural legacy still endures to this day.

To make this recipe, you'll need:

BADIAN BLEND: 1 tsp

Love these chicken skewers. The seasoning mixture is delicious and leaves a little sensation on the lips. This is the perfect summertime chinese food. Really easy to prep and then grill or barbeque. So glad to have yet another spicery choice for indoors and out. Thanks guys, we are already looking forward to the 2 skewers I put in the freezer.
