Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless chicken thigh fillets
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup mango nectar
- ¼ cup barbecue sauce or marinade
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine mango nectar, barbecue sauce, and red pepper flakes. Stir until well-distributed.
- Trim chicken thigh fillets of extra fat. Rinse and drain well. Pat dry and cut into 1-inch strips. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add to the marinade and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. Drain from marinade, reserving liquid.
- Thread 2 to 3 chicken slices onto each skewer.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, simmer mango nectar-barbecue marinade for about 20 minutes or until reduced to about ½ cup.
- Add sesame oil and stir to combine. Set aside.
- Grill chicken skewers on a hot grill for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. When the meat starts to lose its pink, baste it with the sweet mango mixture.
- Continue to grill and baste, turning on sides, until cooked through. Remove from heat and serve hot.
Notes
- The recipe makes about 12 skewers; nutritional information is calculated at two sticks per serving.
- Drain the chicken well, and pat dry to prevent the excess liquid from diluting the marinade.
- Soak bamboo sticks in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.
