Honey Teriyaki Chicken Kabobs are an easy way to prepare chicken for summer grilling. A simple marinade gives them Asian flavors and makes them delicious.
You need to plan ahead to make these as they should sit in the marinade for at least four hours and longer if time allows.
Boneless chicken thighs typically have a lot of fat that needs to be taken off so allow for this and buy enough. You could also substitute boneless chicken breast if you prefer.
You can place the marinated chicken on skewers alone to be grilled or add some fresh vegetables of your choice.
The kabobs can be simply served over rice or if you want to stick with the Asian theme, you could serve them with Tahini Noodles and Asian Slaw.

Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, brown sugar, and ginger in a zip top bag. Add the chicken and marinade for a minimum for 4 hours and up to 8 hours for added flavor. You should soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before adding the chicken to them and grilling. This will help them not to burn on the grill. Place the chicken cubes onto the skewers. Leave the top inch of the skewer showing. You can alternate the chicken with vegetables if you prefer. Heat your grill. Grease it and add the chicken kabobs. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning them occasionally. They need to reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees. If you do not have a grill, you can easily cook the kabobs in the broiler of your oven. They should cook about 5 minutes on each side, again reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
