FIVE SPICE CHICKEN

I was delighted to share some of the fabulous new things in the area with Mum, who was visiting from New Zealand.
There is a movie lounge in Fort Smith, I have been to a couple of times, and I love that you can eat great food and have a glass of wine or cocktail in the theater while watching the movie.
We thought it would be fun for the kids to experience too – however I had read the show times wrong, and what we thought would be a kids movie, turned out to be Shakespeare. The kids complained about too much kissing on the screen, and I was grateful the drinks and food arrived quickly, a welcome distraction for them.
I had put the chicken in to marinate that morning, so we just had to cook it when we got home after our road trip, movie, lunch and tour of a national historic site. We had a wonderful afternoon, both the movie and the Guide in Judge Parkers coutroom were entertaining and enjoyable, and made the past come alive.
Thankfully the chicken kebabs were child appropriate – some compensation for the movie and all they heard about the lawlessness of the long ago Indian territory.

FIVE SPICE CHICKEN

2 tablespoons honey
2 onions, peeled and sliced
2 teaspoons salt
1 inch of ginger, peeled and sliced
6 cloves of garlic
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 pound boneless chicken, cut into 1 inch cubes
basil leaves for serving

Blend honey, onions, salt and spices into a sauce. Let chicken marinate for at least 2 hours. Heat grill, thread chicken onto skewers. Place chicken on grill and cook, turning skewers, until the chicken is cooked through.
Place on platter and sprinkle with basil leaves.
Enjoy!
