Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- Skewers (wooden or metal)
Instructions
- Mix together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil to create the marinade.
- Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight in the refrigerator for more flavor).
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
- Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, spacing them out evenly for proper cooking.
- Grill the skewers for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
- Serve hot, optionally garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for a fresh finish.
Notes
For added flavor, consider adding red bell peppers, zucchini, or pineapple chunks to the skewers. Marinate overnight for maximum flavor.
