Grilled Honey Lime Chicken Skewers
An interesting recipe perfect for a weekend night: Grilled Honey Lime Chicken Skewers.
Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine honey, lime juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to create the marinade.
2. Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and toss to coat them evenly. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight for maximum flavor.
3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
4. Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers.
5. Place the chicken skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and nicely charred.
6. While grilling, brush the chicken skewers with any remaining marinade for extra flavor and moisture.
7. Once cooked, remove the chicken skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
8. Serve the grilled honey lime chicken skewers as a delicious main course. They pair well with a side of grilled vegetables, a fresh salad, or your favorite dipping sauce.
These grilled honey lime chicken skewers are a perfect choice for a weekend night, providing a tantalizing balance of sweet, tangy, and smoky flavors. Enjoy the deliciousness of perfectly grilled chicken, and savor the moments of culinary delight with friends and family.
Note: If you prefer an indoor cooking method, you can also use a grill pan or bake the skewers in the oven at 425°F (220°C) for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the chicken cubes.
