Shrimp Kebabs

Ingredients:
10.75 ounce condensed tomato soup
1/4 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, shelled and de-veined

Method:
Mix soup, orange juice, soy, oil and ginger in shallow nonmetallic dish. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate one hour. Thread shrimp on six long skewers. Grill kababs 10 minutes or until done, turning and brushing often with marinade. Heat remaining marinade to a boil and serve with shrimp.

Tip:
You can replace shrimp with 1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breasts or boneless pork loin, cut into cubes. Marinate and grill as above. Also delicious as a basting sauce for cut-up fresh vegetables or pineapple chunks.

Sweet and sticky chicken noodle

Ingredients:
1 skinless cooked chicken breast
3 spring onions
1/2 red pepper, stalk and seeds removed
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil and/or 1 tbsp sesame seeds
2 tbsp honey
150g egg noodles
handful of coriander (optional)

Method:

Shred the chicken into strips, then cut it into chunks small enough to pick up on a fork. Put in a large bowl. Use your scissors to snip the hairy root ends off the spring onions and throw away. Snip the rest of the spring onion into pieces.

Add to the chicken. Use scissors or a small knife to cut the pepper into strips and then pieces. Like the chicken you want the pieces to be small enough to pick up. Measure the soy sauce, sesame oil (or seeds) and honey into the bowl, mix together. Cook the noodles at the same time.

Tip the hot noodles into the bowl and mix everything together with a large spoon or pair of tongs. Divide the noodles between two bowls and add some fresh coriander to each one, if you like.
