How to Make Muscovado Marinated Chicken Sticks With Ginger Garlic

  1. In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup muscovado sugar, 2 tablespoons grated ginger, 4 cloves minced garlic, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 tablespoon rice vinegar.
  2. Cut 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes.
  3. Add the chicken to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
  4. Preheat grill to medium-high heat or preheat oven to 210°C (410°F).
  5. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, leaving a small space between each cube.
  6. Grill the skewers for approximately 5-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Alternatively, bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
  7. Serve immediately with steamed rice and fresh green beans. Garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions, if desired.
