Honey-Lime Chicken Skewers

submitted by Jessica Johns

Marinade ingredients

·         3 tablespoons soy sauce

·         2 tablespoons honey

·         1 tablespoon vegetable oil

·         juice of one lime

·         2 garlic cloves, minced

·         1-2 teaspoons Siracha

·         red pepper flakes, to taste

·         2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped finely

Chicken    

·         1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts

Instructions

1.      In a small bowl, combine your marinade ingredients.  Mix thoroughly.

2.      Cut chicken into large chunks.  (Make sure they are all about the same size so they cook evenly.)

3.      Pour marinade over chicken breasts and turn to coat. Cover and allow to marinate for at least 1 hour.  (You can marinate this overnight and it works great.)

4.      Grill on medium high heat for 6 to 8 minutes per side, until juices run clear.  If you're using bamboo skewers, soak your sticks in water for at least 5 minutes.

5.      If grilling isn’t an option, I pan sear the chicken chunks in a little bit of olive oil, then finish them off in the oven.  Don’t overcook!  Once the juices run clear, the chicken is ready!
