Preparation

  • Preheat your grill to medium-high temperature.
  • In a large bowl, combine chicken pieces with olive oil and seasoning ingredients. Mix well.
  • Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, spacing them evenly.

Cooking

  • Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally until fully cooked.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, then add minced garlic, hot sauce, red pepper flakes, and parsley. Stir and cook for a few minutes until fragrant.

Notes

Allow chicken to rest after grilling for juices to redistribute. For variation, add lemon zest to the sauce or swap hot sauce for sweet chili sauce.
