Ingredients
1.5 lbs chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/3 cup honey
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Whisk together the honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, and vinegar in a large mixing bowl.
Combine the chicken cubes with the marinade and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Soak wooden skewers in water for 10 minutes prior to use.
Thread the marinated chicken onto the prepared skewers.
Preheat grill or indoor griddle to medium-high heat.
Cook the skewers, turning occasionally, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Brush the reserved marinade over the chicken during the final two minutes of cooking.
Notes
Soaking wooden skewers prevents them from burning during the grilling process. For a deeper flavor, use raw honey. Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit for safety.
