Instructions

Soak the wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes so they don't burn.
Cut the chicken into even pieces about 3 cm wide.
In a bowl, mix the coconut milk, the lime juice, the turmeric, the crushed garlic, salt and pepper.
Add the chicken to the marinade, mix and leave to rest in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
Thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a small gap between each one.
Cook the skewers on a hot pan or grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side, brushing with marinade as they cook.
Check that the chicken is cooked through, then serve hot.
