The combo of chicken, pineapple and chilli is simply irresistible!

Ingredients:

Chicken: 
  • 1 tin pineapple chunks in syrup
  • 150ml BBQ sauce
  • 30ml soy sauce
  • 1-2 red chillies, deseeded and roughly chopped
  • 5ml smoked paprika
  • 1 pack chicken wings
  Salsa:
  • 1 small pineapple, chopped into 1x1cm chunks
  • 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
  • ½ red onion, finely chopped
  • 15g coriander leaves, roughly chopped
  • 15ml lime juice
  • black pepper

Method:

Chicken:
  • Put the pineapple chunks, BBQ sauce, soy sauce, chilli, and paprika into a food processor. Blend until smooth.
  • Place the chicken wings in a dish. Pour over ¾ of the sauce and coat them well. Marinate for 1 hour.
  • Heat a grill or braai. Cook the chicken wings over a medium heat, turning every 4 minutes until crispy and cooked through. This takes about 15-20 minutes. Baste every few minutes with the remaining sauce.
  Salsa:
  • Mix all the ingredients together and season to taste.
  Serve the chicken-wing skewers hot, topped with some of the salsa. Serve the rest of the salsa on the side.
