# What You'll Need:
→ Chicken Sticks
01 -
1 lb chicken breasts without bones or skin, diced into 1-inch chunks
02 -
2 tablespoons olive oil
03 -
1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 -
1 teaspoon onion powder
05 -
1 teaspoon smoky paprika
06 -
Salt and pepper as needed
07 -
Wood or metal skewers (soak wooden ones in water for 10-15 minutes first)
→ Spicy Cream Sauce
08 -
½ cup mayo
09 -
2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
10 -
1 tablespoon sriracha (add more or less depending how spicy you want it)
11 -
1 tablespoon honey
12 -
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
13 -
Small amount of salt
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Slice your chicken into equal 1-inch chunks so they'll cook the same. Mix them with olive oil and all the spices. Let them sit for at least 30 minutes to soak up the flavors.
02 -
Grab a small bowl and stir together the mayo, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, rice vinegar, and a bit of salt. Make it as hot or mild as you want and put it aside.
03 -
Slide the seasoned chicken onto your skewers. Don't pack them too tight but keep them close enough to cook well.
04 -
Get your grill nice and hot on medium-high. Cook the chicken sticks for about 3-4 minutes on each side, turning now and then until they reach 165°F (74°C) inside.
05 -
Pour the spicy sauce over your cooked chicken or use it as a dip on the side. You can top with some sesame seeds, green onions, or cilantro if you want.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Always soak wood skewers in water before grilling so they won't burn up.
02 -
You can make the sauce milder or spicier by changing how much sriracha you add.
