Grilled Maple Sriracha Chicken Skewers
Grilled Maple Sriracha Chicken Skewers is an easy chicken dinner recipe with a sweet and spicy marinade and sauce with just a few ingredients!
Equipment
- Grill
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (or chicken breasts)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 to 3 tablespoons sriracha
- 5 to 6 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice (optional)
- 4 kabob skewers (if wood soak in water for a few hours)
- kosher salt, pepper
- Optional: sesame seeds or chives for garnish, store bought yum yum sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Cut the chicken into bite size pieces and place in a gallon size plastic bag.
- Combine the maple syrup, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic, and lime juice (if using) in a bowl and whisk together.
- Put a few spoonfuls of the sauce into the bag with the chicken. Massage the bag to evenly coat the chicken. Marinate in the fridge for a few hours.
- Put the chicken on the kabobs skewers and season with kosher salt and pepper. Preheat the grill to medium for several minutes. Grill the skewers 9 to 12 minutes total, turning the kabobs a few times. Brush the remaining sauce on the skewers a few times.Note: I recommend well oil grill grates to prevent sticking, if sticking does happen gently rock the skewers back and forth with tongs until the chicken releases.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and/or chives and serve with yum yum sauce if desired.
