Braai Recipe - Chicken Kebabs with Spicy Peanut Sauce

If you looking to be creative and make freshly prepared braai dishes, try this one.

Ingredients
• 500 g skinless chicken breasts
• A red and a yellow pepper (I personally like green peppers)

Ingredients for Sauce• /2 onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 2 tsp chilli paste
• 1/4 cup crunchy, unsweetened peanut butter
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 tbs balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 tsp soy sauce
• 1/2 tsp brown sugar
• Kebab sticks

Cut the chicken into chunks and slice the peppers into small squares.
Thread the chicken and peppers onto kebab sticks alternating between chicken and different coloured peppers. Grill the kebabs on the braai or on a griddle pan on your stove until the chicken is cooked through.
To make the sauce, fry the onion in some oil until soft. Add the garlic and chilli and fry for about a minute.

Turn the heat down to low, add the peanut butter and stir to combine. Add the water, lemon juice, soy sauce, vinegar and sugar and continue stirring for three minutes or until the sauce is thick

Tip: Soak the peppers first to prevent burning.
Important Ingredient: A fire, good friends and your favourite soft drink, beer or glass of wine.

National Braai Day

Heritage Day, 24 September, is a Public holiday on which South Africans across the spectrum are encouraged to celebrate their cultural heritage and the diversity of their beliefs and traditions, in the wider context of a nation that belongs to all its people.

South Africans celebrate Heritage Day by remembering the cultural heritage of the many cultures that make up the population of South Africa. Various events are staged throughout the country to commemorate this day.
In 2005, a media campaign sought to "re-brand" the holiday as National Braai Day, in recognition of the South African culinary tradition of holding informal backyard barbecues, or braais.

On September 5, 2007, Archbishop Desmond Tutu celebrated his appointment as patron of South Africa's Barbecue (Braai) Day, affirming it to be a unifying force in a divided country (by donning an apron and tucking into a boerwors sausage). At the end of 2007 National Braai Day changed its name to Braai4Heritage and the initiative received the endorsement of South Africa's National Heritage Council (NHC).
Corporate and friend around South Africa get together for a Braai. Belle Regalo Offers a wide variety of braai gifts for National Braai day.
