Discover three flavour-packed sosatie variations using Robertsons spices to elevate your next braai or family meal.

Tips

Chef’s Tip: Soaking the sosatie sticks will prevent the wooden sticks from burning when placed on the braai * When threading sosaties, do not overcrowd the sosatie sticks; ensure a small gap between each piece of meat to allow for even cooking.

Ingredients

800 grams skinless, boneless chicken breasts or thighs
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
salt and pepper to taste
fresh herbs , chopped
1 lemon

Italian Spice Blend

2 tablespoons Robertsons Italian herbs
2 tablespoons Robertsons garlic flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons Robertsons crushed chillies spice

2 teaspoons Robertsons peri peri spice
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic salt

Greek Spice Blend

2 tablespoons Robertsons Origanum
1 tablespoon Robertsons Crushed garlic Seasoning
2 ml Robertsons black pepper

Cooking Method

Place the sosatie sticks on a plate or tray large enough for the sosatie sticks to lie flat. Cover the sosatie sticks with boiling water and allow to sit for at least 15 minutes.
On a chopping board, cut the chicken breasts or chicken thighs into approx. 2.5cm x 2.5cm pieces, place in a bowl and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the Robertsons Herbs and Spices for the spice blend of choice, salt and pepper, the vegetable oil, and the juice of ½ a lemon. Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces and stir through to ensure all pieces have been coated fully. Seal or cover the chicken pieces, then marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Prepare the braai for direct cooking over medium heat (180°C) while the sosaties are marinating.
Thread the pieces of chicken onto the soaked sosatie sticks and place in a large enough container.
Place the sosaties onto the braai grid and allow to cook and caramelise on one side for at least 8 minutes before rotating. Allow the sosaties to cook for another 8 minutes, or until cooked through.
Squeeze the remaining ½ lemon over the sosaties. Remove from the braai, finish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs. Serve and ENJOY!
