Ingredients

US Customary - Metric
  • 32 ounces boneless and skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup honey raw preferred
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  • 1 garlic clove very finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt optional

Instructions

  • Slice the chicken into very thin strips with a very sharp knife. Thread accordion-style onto wooden skewers.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together honey, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, chipotle chili powder, chopped garlic, and optional salt. Spoon sauce over skewers.
  • Add skewers to a hot grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked, basting with sauce and turning every 2-3 minutes to evenly cook the entire skewer of chicken.
  • Alternatively, the skewers can be baked in an oven preheated to 400 degrees for 16-18 minutes or until fully cooked.

Notes

One skewer is made using about 4 ounces of uncooked chicken.
