Finger food can pose a threat to your waist line, picking at food a little here and a little there can be a problem. This does not have to be the case at all, if you are clever with the finger food you lay out for your guests. For example, you can create a chicken satey. First cut the chicken into cubes and marinate it in a combination of two tablespoons of soy sauce and two tablespoons of honey, as well as one tablespoon of dark brown sugar and one tablespoon of sesame seeds. After that, add a crushed garlic clove. Once marinated in the fridge for a few hours you can put the cubes of chicken on to a long kebab sticks. After this you can cook the chicken under the grill and finally serve with them a peanut butter sauce that has been loosened with a modest amount of sesame oil combined with soy sauce and honey. You can place a toasted baguettes that has been sliced and has tuna on top of it with olive oil, cannellini beans, chilli flakes and basil besides chicken.
