Delicious, tender chicken marinated in vanilla salt and lime zest is lovely as an entrée or a great addition to your barbecue menu.
Wine match Hahndorf Hill Gruner Veltliner – GRU 2012, Adelaide Hills, SA
In my head, I don’t usually put lime and vanilla together, but this bright and breezy dish seems like just the thing for enjoying on a warm day at a barbecue. And so you’ll want an outdoor friendly white to go with it. No real fat, chilli heat or heavy sauce to worry about so you can pick a white that is delicate and clean. This is the second visit this series to the Austrian Gruner Veltliner variety because I think it has such food-friendly properties. It calls to mind citrus and light stone fruit sprinkled with spicy white pepper, and so you get interest and plenty of fresh, clean flavours and acidity – definitely one to try if you get the chance.

Ingredients
Wooden skewers
800g chicken breast, cut into 2cm squares
Olive oil, to coat chicken
1½ tbsp ground vanilla salt and lime zest
Pinch of pepper
1 lime
