Instructions
1 Place syrup, sauces and vinegar in a large bowl, stirring to combine. Add chicken, stirring to coat. Set aside to marinate for 8 minutes.
2 Meanwhile, heat a barbecue chargrill plate over medium-high heat. Add corn and cook for 2 minutes each side or until charred and tender. When cool enough to handle, cut corn kernels from cob (see Cook’s tip). Discard cob.
3 Alternate threading pieces of chicken and pineapple onto 8 metal or pre-soaked wooden skewers. Drizzle chargrill plate with a little oil, then add skewers and cook, turning and basting with remaining marinade, for 10 minutes or until chicken is charred and cook through.
4 Meanwhile, whisk together lemon juice and olive oil in a large bowl. Add cucumber, avocado, corn kernels and salad leaves, tossing to combine.
5 Heat rice according to packet instructions. Divide rice among serving plates, top with skewers and serve with chargrilled corn salad.
HFG tip
Remove corn kernels by standing the cob upright on a flat surface, then using a sharp knife to cut down sides of cob, rotating cob as you go.
