This is the Dutch West Indian version of the classic Indonesian saté. Boka means "mouth" and dushi means "sweet" in Papamiento, the musical dialect that blends Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, and West African languages. Kejap manis, the ancestor of modern ketchup, is a thick, sweet soy sauce; you can substitute equal parts soy sauce and molasses. Sambal ulek is a fiery paste made of red peppers. Look for both in Asian markets.

Step 1. Kejap manis, a sweet soy sauce, and sambal ulek, a spicy paste made from peppers, combine to create a bold marinade for the chicken.

Step 2. Thread the chicken onto skewers, and grill.
