Preparation

- Add the chicken chunks to the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes or prepare it the night before.
Grilling
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, ensuring they are spaced out for even cooking.
- Grill the skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and has grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
- Remove from grill and serve warm.
