For a stronger flavour, leave the chicken to marinate overnight.

Method

1. Put the chicken pieces, teriyaki marinade and maple syrup into a food bag, seal tight and mix well. Leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hrs.
2. Soak skewers in water for 30 mins. Heat grill to medium. Thread a chicken fillet onto each skewer and transfer to a grill rack. Grill chicken for 8-10 mins, turning halfway, until cooked through.
3. To make the dip, mix together spring onions, chilli sauce and lime juice. Serve with skewers, topped with sliced spring onions and lime wedges to squeeze over.
