Well hello spring and all the BBQing that goes with it! I have to admit, when that first whiff of a neighbour grilling came through my open window – a huge grin spread across my face!
As much as I love comforting meals made in the oven or slow cooker, tasting grilled food again was pure heaven. HEAVEN.
So, out comes all my grilling recipes and off I shop for BBQ tools. As time goes by and the days are just getting nicer and nicer, sitting on the deck and not having to cook indoors is most welcome!
One of the first things we made this year is meat on skewers, isn’t meat on a stick just about the best thing invented? YES!
Plus, I love that I can even get 100 bamboo wooden skewers for less than $5. One pack lasts so long!

The ‘sweet, mildly sour with a bit of a kick’ taste is divine. It’ a blend of all the great things in a marinade – and so easily paired with anything from potatoes to rice, veggies and salad.
Here’s the recipe, and enjoy my friends! Happy BBQing!

Honey Sriracha Grilled Chicken Skewers
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into large cubes)
- ¼ cup honey or agave
- 4 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil + extra for grill
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 3 tbsp sriracha chile sauce
- ¼ tsp salt
- 6 skewers {if you use wood (be sure to soak prior to using})
Instructions
- Place chicken cubes into a large ziplock bag, set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, extra virgin olive oil, garlic, sriracha, and salt; whisk well.
- Divide mixture, setting aside ¼ cup for later use.
- Pour remaining mixture into bag with chicken, squeeze air out of bag and seal bag, coat chicken with sauce, place into fridge for at least 30 minutes to marinate.
- Heat up grill over medium/high heat. Using soaked wood skewers or metal skewers, add 5-6 chicken pieces to each skewer; repeat until all chicken is skewered. Discard used marinade.
- Using a grill brush, brush oil onto grill racks to prevent sticking {could also use grill spray}. Place the skewers onto the grill, close grill. Grill over medium high heat, and occasionally brush the chicken with the reserved sauce mixture. Close grill between brushing. Cook for 4-5 minutes on first side, flip and cook another 4-5 minutes on second side.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
