Chicken skewers are a popular preparation in many cultures, and their origins date back to ancient times, when people began cooking meat skewered on sticks over fire. In Latin America, this type of dish can have different names such as "pinchos", "anticuchos", or simply "skewers", depending on the country. For example, in Peru, anticuchos are usually prepared with beef or beef heart, while in other countries, versions with chicken or pork are preferred. The incorporation of exotic flavors and tropical spices gives a special twist to the skewers, as with the curry and honey marinade that mimics a festive atmosphere, ideal for outdoor gatherings alongside tiki torches that enhance that warm, Caribbean ambiance.
