1. Can I use other proteins instead of chicken?

2. How can I make the Bang Bang sauce less spicy?

To make the Bang Bang sauce less spicy, simply reduce the amount of sriracha or replace it with a milder hot sauce. You can also add more mayonnaise or a little honey to balance out the heat without losing the flavor.

3. Can I make Bang Bang Chicken Skewers ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the chicken and sauce in advance. Marinate the chicken the night before and store it in the fridge. You can also make the Bang Bang sauce up to a week ahead and store it in an airtight container. When ready to cook, simply assemble the skewers and grill them as usual.

Bang Bang Chicken Skewers: Grilled & Spicy Flavorful Delight

Description

Grilled Bang Bang Chicken Skewers are coated with a creamy, spicy sauce and garnished with fresh herbs. A perfect appetizer or main dish that combines bold flavors and smoky grilled goodness.

Ingredients

Scale

1 lb chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp sriracha sauce (or more, for heat)
1 tbsp honey
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp ginger, grated
1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
1 lime (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sriracha sauce, honey, mayonnaise, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger to make the marinade.
Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Let it marinate for 1-2 hours.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, ensuring an even distribution.
Grill the skewers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and drizzle with extra Bang Bang sauce (if desired).
Garnish with sesame seeds, cilantro, and lime wedges before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can make the Bang Bang sauce ahead of time and refrigerate it.
Substitute chicken breasts for chicken thighs for a leaner option.
