Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients including the arrowroot powder. Heat in a saucepan over medium heat until just boiling. Stir rapidly to remove the chunks and remove from the heat.
- Let cool.
- Prep the skewers by spearing chicken breast chunks and bell peppers. Roughly three pieces of chicken to one piece of bell pepper until everything is used.
- Place the chicken skewers in a baking tray and pour the teriyaki sauce over them. Flip the kabobs and brush them with sauce from the bottom.
- Let sit to marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes – 4 hours.
- When ready to cook, preheat the barbeque to roughly 350 degrees Fahrenheit and oil the cast-iron flattop.
- Place the teriyaki chicken kabobs on the flattop and cook them at low to medium heat for roughly 45 minutes until cooked through.
- While cooking, pour the remaining marinade over the kabobs and flip them as needed so that all sides are coated in sauce.
- While cooking, pour the remaining marinade over the kabobs and flip them as needed so that all sides are coated in sauce.
Notes
- Makes 5 teriyaki chicken kabobs.
- The longer you let the grilled teriyaki chicken skewers marinate the more flavorful they’ll be.
- They’re best cooked on a flattop grill because it lets them soak in the extra teriyaki sauce and coat them until sticky. You can grill them traditionally but they won’t be as juicy.
- Make sure to use metal skewers.
- Leave space between the chicken pieces to ensure they cook fully.
- Fresh ginger and garlic work well but powdered will better distribute the flavor.
