This chicken on a stick (chicken skewers) recipe is so easy to prepare, and you can easily adjust the sauce based on your preference.

📝 Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup chicken marinade

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Begin by washing and patting dry the boneless chicken breast to remove excess moisture.
  2. 2Carefully slice the boneless chicken breast into thin strips, approximately 1 inch wide.
  3. 3Take the prepared chicken strips and place them into a large zip-top bag. Pour in half of the flavorful marinade mixture.
  4. 4Seal the bag and make sure the chicken is evenly coated with the marinade. Allow it to marinate for a minimum of 1-2 hours in the refrigerator.
  5. 5--- On the Grill ---
  6. 6If you're opting for bamboo skewers, take this time to soak them in cold water for about 20 minutes. This soaking will prevent them from burning during grilling.
  7. 7While the chicken is marinating, preheat your grill to high, reaching a medium-high heat level, typically around 350-400°F.
  8. 8Thread the marinated chicken strips onto the soaked bamboo skewers, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
  9. 9Grill the chicken skewers for approximately 15 minutes in total, flipping them halfway through the grilling process.
  10. 10As you grill, make sure to lightly baste the chicken with the remaining marinade every few minutes to enhance the flavors and maintain moisture.
  11. 11--- In the Oven ---
  12. 12Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  13. 13Place the skewers in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, remembering to flip them halfway through the cooking time for even cooking and a golden-brown finish.
