👨🍳 Instructions
- Cut the chicken breast into thin strips or cubes, about 1-inch thick, suitable for skewering.
- In a bowl, combine the ground roasted peanuts, ginger powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and paprika; mix thoroughly to create the Suya spice blend.
- Coat the chicken pieces generously with the Suya spice blend, ensuring each piece is well covered, then drizzle with vegetable oil.
- Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, leaving a small space between each piece. If using wooden skewers, pre-soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Grill, broil, or pan-fry the chicken skewers for 8-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and nicely charred.
- Serve the Chicken Suya hot, typically garnished with sliced raw onions, tomatoes, and an extra sprinkle of Suya spice.
