1 Preheat barbecue to a high heat. To make marinade, place marinade ingredients in a jar. Shake then transfer to a bowl. Add chicken to coat then thread meat onto skewers.

2 Thread vegetables onto separate skewers. Spray all skewers and corn cobs with oil.

3 Cook chicken for 7-10 minutes, turning several times and brushing with any remaining marinade until cooked. Cook vegetable skewers and corn until tender and lightly charred. Serve skewers with a piece of corn and half a wholemeal pita bread.
