Description
Delight in the sweet and smoky flavors of Bourbon Maple BBQ Chicken Skewers, perfect for backyard gatherings and cozy family dinners.
Ingredients
- 2 Chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup Bourbon
- 1/4 cup Maple syrup
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Pepper
- Skewers (wooden or metal)
Instructions
- Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces for easy grilling.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together bourbon, maple syrup, BBQ sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight for deeper flavor).
- Preheat your grill to medium heat, allowing it to reach the perfect cooking temperature.
- Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
- Grill the skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and has lovely char marks.
- Serve hot, with extra BBQ sauce on the side for dipping, if desired.
Notes
For juicier options, consider using chicken thighs. Wooden skewers should be soaked in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
