Chicken and Ostrich Kebabs Recipe

Chicken and Ostrich Kebabs

Recipe by Jackie Cameron

Always choose extra-lean meat. For something different try ostrich. It's important that you trim all the fat off the meat. At your next braai add low-fat, healthy, chicken kebabs to your menu and a side serving of yoghurt tatziki, as well as some low-fat ostrich kebabs with a slightly-spicy, dried-mango dipping sauce.

Ingredients :

Chicken, cut into cubes

Ostrich, cut into cubes

Selection of vegetables off your choice: peppers, onions, courgettes, mushrooms, celery, tomatoes.
