Sosatie
Sosatie is a delicious South African dish that consists of skewered meat, typically lamb or chicken, marinated in a flavorful mixture of spices and then grilled. It is often served with a variety of accompaniments like vegetables, fruits, or chutneys.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken or lamb, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 large onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground paprika
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon vinegar (preferably apple cider vinegar)
- 1 tablespoon oil (for marinating)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Skewers (soaked in water if wooden)
Instructions
For the marinade:
- In a bowl, combine the chopped onion, minced garlic, ground coriander, cumin, turmeric, paprika, brown sugar, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Add the lamb or chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are coated evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to develop.
For grilling:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Thread the marinated meat onto the skewers, alternating with any desired vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, or onions.
- Grill the sosatie skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, or until the meat is cooked through and lightly charred.
- Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Sosatie is typically enjoyed with sides like rice, couscous, or fresh salads.
