Chichinga

By: The Local Palate
CHICHINGA

These are the quintessential Ghanaian kebabs, but really they belong to most West African homes. Chichinga is often one of the many rounds of food you receive during a welcome at someone’s home or at an event in the Ghanaian community. My take uses my All- Day Seasoning Blend and Suya Spice Blend to season the meat, but this is very similar to what you might have at any gathering. And if chichinga is served in a restaurant or on a roadside in Ghana, you’ll get it the way it’s meant to be enjoyed: over the grill. Suya spices just seem to come alive when cooked over a flame; that’s why I think this dish stands on its own against any other version of kebabs in the world.
