Cut 200g of chicken breast into cubes and place in a mixing bowl. Add 3 Tbsp of yakitori sauce and mix well.
Add 1 large leek chopped into large slices. Mix well.
If using bamboo skewers, soak them in a bowl of water to help stop them from burning. Thread the diced chicken and leek alternately onto skewers.
Cook the skewers in the oven or in a large pan. Every thirty seconds, brush the sauce on the top side of the skewers. Repeat until you have brushed the sauce 4 to 5 times on each side. When the chicken is cooked thoroughly, remove the skewers from the grill. Before serving, brush the sauce once more. If you want richer flavor, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame seeds.
