Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken Skewers:

  • 1 1/2 lbs. chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)

For the Marinade:

  • 2 tsp fresh ginger (finely grated)
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp gochujang
  • Chopped green onions (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cut Chicken and Marinate: Cut chicken into 1 1/2″ cubes and toss in a bowl. In another small bowl, whisk together the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and gochujang to make the marinade.
  2. Marinate Chicken: Pour half of the marinade over the chicken and mix to fully coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  3. Prepare for Grilling: Cover the remaining sauce and refrigerate for basting later. Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers.
  4. Grill the Chicken: Heat the grill to medium heat. Grill the skewers, turning every 3-4 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through (internal temp 165 degrees), about 20-30 minutes. Baste with the reserved sauce during the last few turns.
  5. Serve: Remove skewers from the grill and garnish with chopped green onions if desired. Serve with your favorite side dishes.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can sprinkle sesame seeds over the skewers before serving.
  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before threading the chicken to prevent burning.
