Ingredients
Chicken & Marinade
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cubed
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Bang Bang Sauce
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup Thai sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
Soak wooden skewers in water for 20–30 minutes to prevent burning.
Dice the chicken thighs into even cubes and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, parsley, chili flakes, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
Thread 5–7 pieces of chicken onto each skewer.
In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, Thai sweet chili sauce, chopped parsley, and a pinch of salt. Divide the sauce in half—reserve one portion for later, and use the other to coat the chicken skewers.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or use a baking rack on the tray). Place the skewers in a single layer, evenly spaced.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the skewers for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and brush the skewers with the reserved Bang Bang sauce. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Grill Option: These skewers are also great on the grill—cook over medium heat for about 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally.
- Make It Spicy: Add a drizzle of Sriracha or a pinch of cayenne to the sauce for extra heat.
- Serving Ideas: Serve over rice, in lettuce wraps, or as party skewers with a dipping sauce.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer.
