Ingredients
  

Chicken and skewers
  • 2 lb chicken breasts cubed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 salt to taste
  • 0.5 pepper to taste
  • 1 bell peppers and onions for skewering
  • 1 wooden skewers soaked
Bang Bang Sauce
  • 0.5 cup mayonnaise
  • 0.25 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tbsp sriracha
  • 1 tbsp honey
Garnish
  • 1 green onions
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Prep and marinate
  1. Season the chicken with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then arrange it on a sheet pan. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to marinate.
  2. Thread chicken and bell peppers and onions onto the wooden skewers in an even pattern. Keep the pieces snug so they cook through at the same pace.
Grill the kabobs
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F. Place the kabobs on the grates and grill for 5-6 minutes per side with grill marks and lightly charred edges.
Make and finish with sauce
  1. Mix mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and honey until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust with more sriracha if you want it spicier.
  2. Drizzle the bang bang sauce over the grilled kabobs right before serving. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds for a bright, crunchy finish.

Notes

For the best grilling texture, let the chicken marinate uncovered in the fridge on a tray so the surface dries slightly. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; freeze cooked kabobs (without garnish) for up to 2 months. For a lighter option, swap half the mayonnaise for plain Greek yogurt to keep the creamy bang bang sauce while reducing calories.
