Making the marinade
Cut the chicken breasts into fairly big cubes, smaller if using regular skewers.

For the drizzle, mix a little mayo, a splash of red wine vinegar and the reserved marinade.

Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers.
Skewering
Cook the skewers over charcoal without rushing, turning, until browned and done; after five or six minutes continue a little longer.
  • bun
Take the skewers off and toast the bun over the coals for a little colour.
Toasting the bun and building
  • lemon juice
Put a skewer in the bun, squeeze and pull the skewer out; add a little lemon juice and the drizzle.
Variation: cook on a grill instead of charcoal, or without skewers throw the chunks straight on the grill.
