RECIPE NOTES
- Since the marinade had raw chicken in it, if you’re brushing over the chicken as you’re grilling, make sure to not brush all the way till the end, allowing the chicken to cook. Alternatively, you could cook the marinade in a small saucepan, bring it up to a boil and then simmer for 5 minutes. Use this to brush over the chicken as it grills.
- Make sure to soak your skewers in a casserole dish, fully immersed in water. You can prepare this the day before.
- Please keep in mind that nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary greatly based on products used.
