These Honey Lime Chicken Skewers are sizzling with flavor! They're easy to make and an instant summer hit.

Prep Time: 15 mins

Cook Time: 6 mins

Total Time: 21 mins

Ingredients  

• 2 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs (thighs recommended for tenderness)
• ⅓ cup + 2 TB pure honey
• ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
• ¼ cup regular soy sauce
• 8 cloves garlic, minced
• 2-3 TB Sriracha hot sauce, depending on desired amount of heat
• Zest of 1 lime
• 3 TB freshly squeezed lime juice
• 1 tsp ground or freshly grated ginger
• ¼ tsp table salt
• Other: Oil for cooking, freshly chopped cilantro for garnish

Instructions

• Thoroughly dry chicken with paper towel and pierce with fork throughout. Cut into 1-inch pieces; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together all remaining ingredients into a well-combined marinade. Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade for later. Add chicken pieces to the bowl of marinade, turning to coat well. Marinade 2-3 hours, turning occasionally to re-coat.
• Thread marinated chicken onto skewers, discarding any used marinade. Coat grill with oil, heating over medium-high heat until hot. Place skewers on grill and cook until nice grill marks appear and center is no longer pink, approx. 2-3 min/side, basting occasionally with your 1/4 cup of reserved marinade.
• Serve immediately with freshly chopped cilantro for garnish, if desired.

Notes

Chicken is delicious with Cilantro Lime Rice or Coconut Rice.
