Recipe View 11 mins Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear, about 10 to 12 minutes, lowering the heat if the chicken is browning too quickly.

Recipe View 2 mins Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately with fresh lime wedges and the prepared peanut sauce for dipping. Enjoy! (Prep time: 2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the peanut sauce.
If you don't have fresh ginger on hand, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of ground ginger.
The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. However, avoid marinating for more than 24 hours, as the acid in the lime juice can start to break down the chicken.
Serve the kabobs with a side of coconut rice and grilled vegetables for a complete meal.

    These were a hit at our barbecue! The peanut sauce is addictive.

  • Rhianna Bednar

    The peanut sauce was a little too spicy for my kids, so I reduced the amount of sambal oelek.

  • Janiya Mayer

    I made these for a quick weeknight dinner and they were so easy and delicious!

  • Marty Baileyfadel

    The chicken was so tender and juicy. I will definitely be making these again.
