  • Author: teprod
  • Total Time: 51 minute
  • Yield: 6 servings (2 skewers each) 1x

Description

Juicy, glazed chicken skewers bursting with sweet honey and savory garlic flavors. Perfect for grilling season, these skewers are sure to become a family favorite with their irresistible sticky-sweet coating and tender meat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 12 wooden skewers

Instructions

  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before using to prevent burning.
  • Mix honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, ginger, and black pepper in a bowl to create the marinade.
  • Thread chicken pieces onto skewers and place in a shallow dish. Pour marinade over chicken, coating evenly. Marinate for 15-30 minutes.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat (around 375°F).
  • Grill skewers for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.

Notes

  • For best results, don’t marinate longer than 2 hours as the honey can make the chicken too soft.
  • Can be cooked under the broiler if grilling isn’t possible.
  • Reserve some marinade before adding to raw chicken to use as a finishing glaze.
