Ingredients
1
pound
boneless skinless chicken breasts,
cut into 1-inch pieces
¼
cup
soy sauce
3
Tablespoons
honey
1
Tablespoon
vegetable oil
juice
of 1 lime
2
teaspoons
Sriracha sauce
(hot chili sauce)
2
cloves
garlic
minced
2
Tablespoons
cilantro
chopped
4
skewers
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, oil, lime juice, Sriracha sauce, garlic and cilantro. Stir to combine.
Add the diced chicken pieces to marinade.
Gently stir to coat in marinade.
Cover bowl tightly. Place in fridge and let marinate at least 1 hour, up to 3 hours (even overnight.)
Thread 8 to 9 pieces of chicken onto each skewer. (if using wooden skewers make sure to soak in water at least 15 minutes)
Grill over medium heat, 7 to 8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked in center.
Notes
If using wooden skewers, make sure to soak them in water for at least 15 minutes so they don't burn while on the grill.
You can substitute agave syrup for the honey.
The sriracha sauce is completely optional if you don't like it too spicy.
This recipe works wonderfully with chicken thighs as well.
These can be made with an indoor electric grill or a stovetop grill if you have one.
Try switching out the soy sauce with teriyaki sauce for a flavor twist.
