Bang Bang Chicken Kabobs

 

It's been years since I've made kabobs. It's not something I make a lot, and thankfully I had some skewers left over for this meal. Just shows you how long it's been since I've bought wooden skewers. 

But while looking through some food blogs a few weeks back, I came upon this recipe and knew I had to make it.  It's summer time, I love using my grill and this is the perfect meal to throw on, and get on the table in no time.

 

  

 

So where does Bang Bang Chicken originate? 

 

It is a typical street food sold in the Szechuan Region in China.  Basically the sauce is made of mayonnaise, sweet chili and sriracha.  It is delicious and really easy to make.

This meal came together pretty quick, aside from the hour that I left the chicken marinating in the fridge, everything else was quick and in no time we had a delicious summer meal on the table.

By the way, if you don't have a grill, or can't grill for some reason, you can pop these in the oven, I would say maybe at 375 F, until done, then just turn on the broil to give it a nice charred look.

 

 

Bang Bang Chicken Kabobs 

 

 

 

Ingredients 

Boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces

2 tbsp mayonnaise

4 tbsp sour cream 

1 tsp mustard 

1/3 cup sweet chili sauce 

1/2 tsp sriracha 

1 tsp honey 

Wooden skewers

 

 

 

Instructions 

Soak the wooden skewers for at least 10 minutes, to prevent burning.

 

In a big bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, sweet chili sauce, sriracha and honey.  

Add the chicken cubes, and stir well to combine.  Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for about an hour.  

 

Add the chicken pieces to the wooden skewers.  Preheat your grill, make sure to brush on some oil on the grates so the chicken won't stick.  

 

Cook about 5 or 6 minutes on each side, until cooked through.  

 

Drizzle on any remaining sauce over the chicken, and serve immediately.
