2. Chop the chicken breast into bite-size. Place the chicken in a larger bowl and pour 2/3 of the marinade in. Cover with beeswax wrap (or plastic wrap) and place in the fridge for 1 hour to develop the flavours (you can do this step up to a day ahead).

5. Drain marinade from the chicken and discard marinade. Thread chicken and vegetables alternately onto the skewers.
