Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Marinade

    In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, sesame oil, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.

  2. 2

    Marinate Chicken

    Place the cubed chicken in a large resealable plastic bag or a bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2 hours.

Skewer Assembly

  1. 3

    Soak Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

  2. 4

    Assemble Skewers

    Thread the marinated chicken, bell peppers, and red onion pieces onto the soaked skewers, alternating between chicken and vegetables.

Grilling

  1. 5

    Preheat Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 6

    Grill Skewers

    Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Remove skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Serve with additional lime wedges if desired.
