Ingredients
1.5 lbs chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sweet chili sauce
1 tbsp sriracha
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
10 bamboo skewers
Instructions
Soak the bamboo skewers in cold water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
In a large bowl, toss the cubed chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, and salt.
Thread the chicken evenly onto the skewers.
Preheat a grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
Cook the skewers for 8 minutes, rotating every 2 minutes until golden brown.
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha until smooth.
Brush the cooked skewers generously with the sauce and serve hot with remaining sauce on the side.
Notes
Ensure chicken is at room temperature before grilling for the most even cooking. Adjust sriracha quantity if you prefer less heat. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
