Prepare the Grilled Chicken
- Cut the chicken into strips, around the bone.
- Weave the strips onto the skewers.
- Brush the chicken with the oil, and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat your grill to medium-high heat.
- When the grill is hot, place the skewers on the grill, over direct heat.
- Grill until the skin is nice and crispy, about 12 -15 minutes, carefully flipping occasionally.
- Brush some of the white sauce all over the chicken and cook for another minute. Flip, and brush more sauce. Cook for another minute and then remove from the grill.
- Garnish with snipped chives and red pepper flakes, if desired. Serve at once with the remaining white sauce on the side.

- You can substitute chicken breast for this recipe, but, the crispy skin is really what makes the grilled chicken so deeply flavorful. That and the homemade white sauce.
- The Alabama white sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and will keep in the fridge for up to a week.
- The chicken can be skewered and seasoned up to 6 hours in advance. Cover with plastic wrap and keep in the fridge until ready to grill.
