Chicken Kebobs With Spicy Cashew Sauce
Big Sugar's Sweet Little Lies
3 rounds of:
Row 1,000 meters
15 hip-back extensions
21 GHD sit-ups
Grilled chicken kebobs featuring tender chicken cubes and yellow bell peppers then drizzled with a warm, spicy cashew sauce and garnished with scallions.
How the industry kept scientists from asking: Does sugar kill?
The hip-back extensions, as well as the GHD sit-ups, should be performed in a slow, controlled manner. Don't let that slow pace carry over to the rows. Hit the row hard.
Post time to comments.

Preparation
Marinate chicken: In a bowl, mix together soy sauce (1 Tbsp), minced ginger (½ tsp), chili flakes (1 tsp), and lime juice (2 tsp.) Add the chicken cubes (2 ½ oz) and marinate for 10-15 minutes. Skewer the marinated chicken and yellow bell pepper cubes (1 oz.)
Cook chicken and bell pepper: Heat ghee (1 ½ Tbsp) in a pan over medium heat. Add the chicken kebobs and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until the chicken is fully cooked and the bell pepper is tender.
Prepare dipping sauce: In a small saucepan, heat the cashew butter (1 Tbsp) with minced garlic (½ tsp), stirring until smooth and slightly warmed. Add a splash of water if needed to thin it out. Drizzle the spicy cashew sauce over the chicken kebobs or serve it on the side as a dipping sauce. Garnish with scallions (1 Tbsp) and extra chili flakes if desired.
