Juicy and succulent grilled chicken skewers coated with a honey soy glaze, enhanced with the flavors of garlic, ginger, and a touch of sesame oil. Served alongside colorful bell peppers, these kabobs are perfect for a family gathering or a fun summer barbecue.
In a small mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
2
Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade to use later as a glaze.
3
Dice the boneless, skinless chicken thighs into 1-inch pieces and add them to the remaining marinade in the bowl. Toss well to coat, cover, and let marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
4
Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning while grilling.
5
Core and cut each bell pepper into 1-inch squares.
6
Thread the marinated chicken and bell pepper squares onto the soaked bamboo skewers, alternating meat and veggies.
7
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
8
Place the skewers on the grill, flip occasionally to ensure even cooking, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
9
While the skewers are cooking, gently warm the reserved marinade in a small saucepan over low heat, ensuring it doesn't boil, until slightly thickened.
10
Once the chicken skewers are cooked, remove them from the grill and place them on a platter. Brush the warmed honey soy glaze over the skewers generously before serving.
