Ingredients
- 500g chicken breast fillets, cut into 2cm cubes
- 4 rashers bacon
- 4 corn cobs, cut into 4cm discs
- 100g unsalted butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons chopped lemon thyme
Method
- Step 1Soak 12 bamboo skewers in water for 20 minutes to prevent them from burning during cooking. Meanwhile, place butter, lemon thyme, salt and pepper in a small bowl, and stir until combined.
- Step 2Preheat oven to 200°C. Drain skewers. Cut bacon into 10cm x 3cm lengths. Wrap a piece of bacon around a cube of chicken and thread onto a skewer. Repeat for remaining bacon and chicken, allowing 3 pieces of chicken to a skewer.
- Step 3Spray a stovetop grill or non- stick frying pan with oil spray. Cook skewers over medium heat for 4 minutes, turning regularly, until bacon is golden. Remove and place on a lined baking tray.
- Step 4Place in oven and cook for a further 8 minutes or until cooked through. Remove and keep warm.
- Step 5Steam or boil corn. Spread some of the herbed butter over corn and serve with chicken skewers.
