Hot Honey Grilled Chicken Skewers
Delicious and easy-to-make skewers of chicken marinated in sweet and spicy hot honey, perfect for family gatherings or weeknight meals.
Ingredients
For the marinade
- 1 lb chicken breast, cut into cubes (Choose fresh, high-quality chicken for the best flavor.)
- 1/4 cup hot honey (Mix regular honey with a dash of hot sauce if hot honey is unavailable.)
- 2 tbsp olive oil (Helps keep the chicken moist while grilling.)
- 1 tsp garlic powder (Adds depth to the flavor.)
- 1 tsp paprika (Brings smokiness and color.)
- to taste salt and pepper (Seasoning is key for enjoyment.)
Other ingredients
- 1 pack skewers (Soak in water if wooden to prevent burning on the grill.)
Instructions
Preparation
- In a bowl, combine the hot honey, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Whisk to blend well.
- Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and let sit for at least 30 minutes.
Grilling
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.
- Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is charred and has reached an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
For storage, keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Enjoy fresh, but leftovers can be added to salads or wraps. Marinade can be made in advance for enhanced flavor.
