Step 3: Bring the chicken pieces back to room temperature before cooking, then thread them onto skewers, ensuring the pieces do not touch each other
Step 4: Place the skewers in a lightly oiled frying pan and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning halfway through cooking
Step 5: Baste the chicken with the butter and cook for a further minute or until lightly charred at the edges and fully cooked through, then serve
