Ingredients Notes For Bang Bang Chicken Skewers:

  • Chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs cut into bite-sized pieces, ideal for skewering and grilling.
  • Bang Bang Sauce: A mix of mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, honey, and Sriracha (or your preferred hot sauce) creates the signature spicy, creamy coating.
  • Garlic and Ginger: Freshly minced for added depth and a punch of flavor in the marinade.
  • Lime Juice: Adds a citrusy tang that balances the sweetness and heat.
  • Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.

Recipe Steps:

  1. Marinate the Chicken: Combine the Bang Bang sauce ingredients with garlic, ginger, and lime juice in a bowl. Reserve some sauce for serving, then marinate the chicken pieces in the remaining sauce for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Prep the Skewers: Thread the marinated chicken onto the pre-soaked skewers.
  3. Grill: Cook the skewers on a preheated grill, turning occasionally, until the chicken is charred and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
  4. Serve: Drizzle the reserved Bang Bang sauce over the grilled skewers and garnish with fresh herbs or sesame seeds if desired.

Storage Options:

  • Refrigerate: Store cooked skewers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat: Best reheated on a grill or in an oven to maintain the texture, but can also be microwaved if needed.
