Here’s your ultimate guide to making honey lime chicken skewers:
- Prep the Chicken: Slice chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Marinate: Add minced garlic, freshly squeezed lime juice, Dano seasoning, black pepper, olive oil, and baking powder to the chicken. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
- Prepare Skewers and Sauce: While the chicken marinates, soak bamboo skewers in water to prevent burning. In a medium bowl, combine softened butter, minced habanero pepper (for a kick), lime zest, lime juice, honey, Dano seasoning, minced garlic, and chopped spring onion to make the honey lime butter sauce.
- Thread the Chicken: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers.
- Grill: Heat your grill to high heat. Grill the chicken skewers, turning occasionally, for about 2 minutes on each side until they develop beautiful char marks and are cooked through.
- Brush with Sauce: Generously brush the grilled chicken skewers with the honey lime butter sauce.
- Serve: Transfer the deliciously grilled chicken skewers to a serving platter. Serve immediately with extra honey lime butter on the side for dipping. Enjoy this irresistible dish!
