Time 20m

1/3 cup honey

Steps:

  • HINT: To prevent wooden skewers from burning soak first (I put a little oil in the water. I don't know if it helps. but I feel it may help lock in the water a little longer.) fit bacon to chicken strips, and thread onto wooden skewers.
  • Combine remaining ingredients.
  • Add chicken skewers.
  • Marinate overnight. (I used a long plastic dish with lid and gave it a light shake every so often).
  • BBQ - on medium, reserving marinade to baste with barbecue 4 to 5 inches from heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink& bacon is crisp.
  • (I made this for a big BBQ I used all the chicken and bacon I needed or had, and 2X or 3X the marinade until I was happy).
