Thread the chicken chunks on skewers and grill over a hot BBQ grill until slightly charred and cooked through. Alternatively you can grill them in a pan drizzled with oil on the stove top for about 4 mintues per side or until cooked through.Remove from the skewers and rest them for a couple of minutes.
