Making Bang Bang Chicken Skewers can be fun and easy if you follow these steps:
- Prepare the Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, proceed directly to preparing the chicken.
- Cut Chicken: Slice the boneless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, about 1 to 1.5 inches.
- Marinate: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken pieces and toss until evenly coated.
- Skewer the Chicken: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers. Leave a little space between each piece for even cooking.
- Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and lemon juice until smooth. Adjust the heat by adding more sriracha if desired.
- Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Cook the Skewers: Place the chicken skewers on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
- Serve with Sauce: Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and drizzle with the Bang Bang sauce, or serve the sauce on the side for dipping.
- Garnish: If desired, sprinkle fresh parsley or cilantro on top for added color and flavor.
- Enjoy: Serve warm with your choice of sides like rice or a fresh salad.
By following these steps, you’ll have mouthwatering Bang Bang Chicken Skewers ready to impress.
