Directions

1. Make garlic sauce: Put the garlic cloves and salt in a blender or food-processor and whizz to a smooth purée. Add the egg white and whizz again until smooth. With the motor running, very slowly pour in the vegetable oil in a constant, steady stream until all the oil is used up and the sauce is the consistency and colour of mayonnaise. Add the lemon juice and keep whizzing until smooth. Taste and add more if necessary.
2. Cut the chicken breasts into 2cm pieces and place in a bowl. Add the olive oil, tomato purée, garlic, garlic sauce, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Mix well to coat the chicken and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour or overnight.
3. Thread the chicken pieces on to skewers and grill for about 10 minutes on the barbecue or under a preheated grill, turning from time to time.
4. Serve with toum (garlic sauce) for dipping and a salad.
