Tangy BBQ Chicken Skewers Recipe - Flavorful Grilled Delight
Tangy BBQ chicken skewers are a delicious and flavorful dish that combines the smoky taste of grilled chicken with a tangy and sweet barbecue sauce. Here's a simple recipe to make tangy BBQ chicken skewers:
Ingredients:
- 1.5 pounds (680 grams) boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup BBQ sauce (choose your favorite flavor)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey or brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
Instructions:
-
In a bowl, combine the BBQ sauce, soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice), minced garlic, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
-
Place the chicken pieces in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure all the pieces are coated. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.
-
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
-
While the grill is heating, thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers.
-
Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Place the chicken skewers on the grill and cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.
-
While grilling, you can brush some additional marinade on the chicken skewers for extra flavor.
-
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve the tangy BBQ chicken skewers hot with your favorite side dishes like coleslaw, grilled vegetables, or rice.
Enjoy your delicious tangy BBQ chicken skewers!
