What's the best way to get the chicken super tender and juicy?

The key to juicy, tender chicken is to not overcook it. Keep a close eye on the skewers during the last few minutes of grilling, and be sure to let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Can I make the sauce in advance?

Absolutely! The honey BBQ sauce can be made up to 5 days in advance and stored in the fridge. This makes it super convenient to throw these skewers together when you're ready to grill.

How can I make these skewers gluten-free?

To make these skewers gluten-free, simply use a gluten-free BBQ sauce or make your own from scratch using gluten-free ingredients like tamari, honey, and apple cider vinegar.

Do I need to soak the wooden skewers before using?

It's a good idea to soak the wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before threading the chicken onto them. This helps prevent the skewers from burning on the grill.

What should I serve with these skewers?

These Honey BBQ Grilled Chicken Skewers are delicious served with a variety of sides, like grilled veggies, creamy coleslaw, or a fresh green salad. You can also serve them with roasted potatoes, mac and cheese, or a simple side of rice or quinoa.
