You can pop these on the barbecue or under the grill if the weather is poor. They make terrific party snacks or summer nibbles, and taste just as good cold.

METHOD

Soak the satay sticks in water to prevent them from burning!
Cut 2 chicken breasts in to strips.
Mix together the garlic, ginger, soy sauce, lemon zest and sugar. Add the chicken and leave to marinade for anything from 20 minutes to 2 hours. 
Cook the chicken on a griddle or on the BBQ for 2-3 minutes on each side.
Prepare the salad by slicing the spring onions on the angle and cut the chilli very finely. Cut up the mango into thin strips - not too small. Mix together with some picked fresh coriander and the toasted cashew nuts, watercress and the thin strips of cucumber. Dress this with a squeeze of lime and a pinch of sugar and salt just before serving.
Mix together the dipping sauce ingredients and serve it all together.
