- Cook the chicken breast in water or steam it. Make the sauce: peel the bell pepper, remove the seeds, cut it into cubes, and blend in a blender or food processor until smooth, pressing through a sieve if needed. Stir into the mayonnaise and season with hot chili sauce to taste. Pat the cooked chicken dry with paper towels and cut it into squares about 1 1/4 inches (3 cm) on a side and a bit over 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken pieces on both sides for just a few seconds, only until lightly golden. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise, then slice each half into pieces about 1/3 inch (7–8 mm) thick. Spoon the sauce into short glasses in a layer about 3/4 inch (2 cm) deep. Thread a cucumber slice and 3 pieces of chicken onto each wooden skewer, then stand the skewer tip-down in a glass of sauce.
