Description
Tender chicken marinated in smoky chipotle and sweet honey, grilled to perfection. A backyard BBQ favorite with bold flavor and charred edges. Perfect for family gatherings or weeknight meals.
Ingredients
1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cubed)
2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (finely minced)
½ cup honey
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
Instructions
Combine chicken cubes with marinade (chipotle peppers, honey, soy sauce, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper) in a bowl. Marinate for 1-2 hours.
Thread chicken onto skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak overnight).
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Brush skewers with remaining marinade.
Grill for 7-10 minutes per side until charred and chicken is fully cooked. Optional: Brush with extra honey glaze before finishing.
Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use metal skewers for best results if possible. Adjust honey or chipotle to suit heat preference. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
