Chicken Skewer

Method

Chicken Skewer

  1. 1

    Marinate the chicken

    In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, olive oil, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, chili flakes, and rice vinegar. Add chicken cubes and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours) to let flavors meld.

  2. 2

    Prep skewers and grill preps

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15 minutes to prevent burning. Remove chicken from marinade (reserve remaining marinade) and thread 4–5 cubes onto each skewer.

  3. 3

    Preheat grill

    Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400–450°F / 204–232°C). Lightly oil the grates.

  4. 4

    Grill and baste

    Grill skewers 4–5 minutes per side, rotating as needed. Baste with the remaining marinade during cooking to keep chicken moist, until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  5. 5

    Rest and serve

    Transfer to a platter, tent with foil for 5 minutes. Serve the skewers with rice, salad, or grilled vegetables.
