Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh chicken breast, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 8–10 bamboo or metal skewers

Bang Bang Sauce

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

For Garnish and Seasoning

  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut fresh chicken breast into evenly sized bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then thread the pieces onto skewers, leaving a small gap between each chunk for better heat circulation.
  2. Make the Bang Bang Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Sriracha, honey, garlic powder, and lime juice until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the spice or sweetness to your preference.
  3. Cook the Skewers: Preheat your grill, grill pan, or broiler to medium-high heat. Cook the skewers for 3-4 minutes on each side until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char on the edges.
  4. Toss in the Sauce: Once cooked, brush the bang bang sauce generously over the hot skewers or toss the cooked chicken in the sauce for maximum coverage.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped green onions and sesame seeds over the skewers for added flavor and visual appeal. Serve immediately for best taste.

Notes

  • Use metal skewers as they heat evenly and cook meat faster than bamboo ones.
  • If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
  • Cut the chicken into uniform pieces to ensure even grilling.
  • Avoid overcooking the chicken; remove from heat once opaque and juices run clear.
  • Serve extra bang bang sauce on the side to let guests control their spice level.
