Directions
-
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, dry sherry, water, minced garlic, and grated gingerroot.
-
Bring the sauce mixture to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
-
Place the chicken cubes and green onion pieces in a large bowl or resealable plastic bag. Pour the cooled marinade over the chicken and onions, ensuring all pieces are well-coated.
-
Let the chicken marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, stirring or shaking the bag halfway through to distribute the flavors evenly.
-
Remove the chicken and onions from the marinade, draining off the excess liquid. Reserve the used marinade for basting later.
-
Thread the chicken cubes and green onion pieces alternately onto 4 skewers, leaving a small space between pieces for even cooking.
-
Preheat the broiler. Place the kabobs on a broiler pan, positioned about 4 inches from the heat source.
-
Broil the kabobs for 4 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, place a cherry tomato on the end of each skewer to secure the ingredients.
-
Turn the kabobs over and broil for another 4 to 5 minutes, brushing occasionally with the reserved marinade until the chicken is cooked through and lightly charred.
