Chinese Chicken Skewers PT45M https://img2.recipesrun.com/201907/2019/0813/20/8/613191/300x200x90.jpg A delicious Asian inspired recipe for Chinese Chicken skewers that’s going to knock your socks off! Simple but full of flavor! I made these as skewers but this is fabulously made with whole chicken fillets. This is best made with skinless, boneless thigh fillets, but you can make it with chicken breast. You won’t get quite the same amount of caramelization you see in the photos because chicken breast has less fat. But the flavor is there! This is fabulous thrown on the grill but you can also make it on the stove OR broil it! 4 servings Ingredients: 2 tbsp. Vegetable or other cooking oil 12 Bamboo skewers soaked in water for 30 minutes 1.5 pounds Chicken thighs skinless and boneless 1 1/2 tsp. Fresh ginger finely grated 2 cloves Garlic crushed 1 tsp. White sugar 1 Sesame oil, optional 1 1/2 tsp. Dried chili Flakes, optional 1 tbsp. Chinese cooking wine or dry sherry 1 tbsp. Soy sauce 3 tbsp. Oyster sauce

03 Method

Step 1

Cut the chicken into 1 - 1.5” pieces.
Step 2

Combine the Marinade ingredients in a bowl.
Step 3

Add the chicken and set aside to marinate for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
Step 4

Thread chicken onto skewers.
Step 5

Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet (big enough to fit the skewers) over medium-high heat.
Step 6

Cook half the skewers for 3 to 5 minutes on each side until deep golden brown, using the spatula to press them so they cook through evenly. Repeat with remaining skewers.

Serve immediately, garnished with finely sliced scallions.
