HONEY-SRIRACHA CHICKEN SKEWERS RECIPE



Honey-Sriracha Chicken Skewers Recipe image

These chicken skewers are my take on buffalo wings. Instead of wings, I use thighs, and instead of buffalo sauce, I use sriracha topped with blue cheese crumbles to give it that extra salty, cheesy kick. These skewers are super quick and easy to throw on the grill. And because they're made with dark meat, they're extremely tender and flavorful.

Provided by Jake Smollett

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons sriracha
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon granulated onion
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
Handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Skewers (if wooden, soak for 20 minutes before grilling)

Steps:

  • CLEAN and oil the grill grates (I like to use the end of a cut onion dipped in olive oil to oil my grates) and preheat the grill to high.
  • IN a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, sriracha, honey, and mustard until smooth. Set aside.
  • CUT the chicken thighs into small square pieces, 6 to 8 pieces per thigh. Put the chicken in a large bowl and season it with the paprika, granulated garlic, granulated onion, and salt. Add the oil and mix to coat the chicken. Divide the chicken among the skewers.
  • GRILL the skewers until thoroughly cooked and slightly charred, 5 to 7 minutes on each side, lightly brushing the sauce over the skewers as they cook.
  • PLATE the skewers and top with blue cheese and parsley.

MIDDLE EASTERN CHICKEN KEBABS IN HONEY-SOY MARINADE



Middle Eastern Chicken Kebabs in Honey-Soy Marinade image

The delicious honey-soy marinade with the garlic makes them special. You could try adding cherry tomatoes or mushrooms. Or use shrimps instead and add pineapple. If you don't grill them too hot you can put the veggies and meat on the same skewers without burning the veggies.
