The Best And Easy Healthy Chinese Chicken Skewers On A Stick Home Made Recipe
Honey Sesame Chicken Skewers - sticky sweet and savory chicken on skewers. So easy to make, so delicious that you won't stop eating.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
- 5 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless (about 17 oz)
- 1 Tbsp Mirin (Japanese cooking wine)
- 2 Tbsp Hoisin sauce
- 3 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp canola oil
- 1” piece of ginger, grated
- 3 scallions, in 1” pieces
- 6 – 8 wooden skewers
Instructions:
- Mix the mirin, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, sugar, oil and ginger in a large bowl.
- Cut the chicken in 1-1.5” pieces and add them to the marinade, stir well.
- Cover the bowl and allow the chicken to marinade for 20-30 minutes.
- Soak the wooden skewers in for 30 minutes water so they won’t burn on the grill (as you can see on the photos I was too impatient, I soaked them for 10 minutes).
- Skewer the chicken and the pieces of scallions onto the skewers. Give them some space inbetween and don’t smash them together so they can cook evenly.
- Cook them on the barbecue grill or in a griddle pan for about 8 minutes, flipping them over after 4 minutes.
- Serve with rice and green beans.
