CHICKEN SKEWERS COOKING
5
Thread the marinated chicken strips onto the soaked skewers in an accordion-like fashion.
6
To cook the skewers outdoors, preheat the grill to high heat. Clean and brush the grates with a high smoke point fat (ghee, avocado oil, etc.). Place the skewers on the hot grill, cooking for about 3-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
7
To cook skewers indoors, preheat the oven to 400°F with convection, or 425°F without convection. Lay skewers on a rimmed baking sheet and cook for 10 minutes, flipping halfway, or until cooked through. Broil for an extra 2 minutes if more color is desired.
NO-NUT HOISIN SAUCE
8
Combine the Paleo Hoisin Sauce, sunbutter, water, and rice vinegar in a blender and blend until smooth. Adjust the sauce's consistency by adding more water if necessary.
SERVING
9
Serve the cooked chicken skewers with the No-Nut Hoisin Sauce drizzled on top or as a dipping sauce.
