Description
Bang Bang Chicken Skewers are a delicious and easy-to-make dish featuring marinated chicken grilled to perfection and served with a spicy bang bang sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
- Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken cubes, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until the chicken is evenly coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- While the chicken is marinating, prepare the sauce by whisking together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
- Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
- Remove from the grill and serve hot with the bang bang sauce drizzled on top or on the side for dipping.
Notes
- For extra flavor, try adding chopped fresh herbs like cilantro or green onions to the sauce.
- You can also substitute shrimp or tofu for the chicken for a different protein option.
- For a spicier kick, increase the amount of sriracha in the sauce.
