Description

Delightful chicken skewers marinated in a spicy and creamy sauce, perfect for grilling and social gatherings.


Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce (adjust to taste)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Skewers (if using wooden ones, soak them in water for 30 minutes)
  • Fresh herbs like cilantro or green onions for garnish (optional)


Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, chili garlic sauce, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  2. Prepare the grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure it’s well oiled to prevent sticking.
  3. Assemble skewers: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece to allow for even cooking.
  4. Grill the skewers: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Add sauce: For the last minute of cooking, brush the skewers with additional sauce for a shiny finish.
  6. Serve immediately: Once done, garnish with fresh herbs and enjoy!

Notes

For added flavor, marinate the chicken overnight. Skewers can also be baked if a grill is not available.
