Bang Bang Chicken Skewers

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs Chicken Thighs (boneless, skinless, cut into small cubes)

  • 2 tbsps Avocado Oil (divided)

  • Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)

  • 3/4 tsp Garlic Powder

  • 4 Barbecue Skewers

  • 1/3 cup Mayonnaise

  • 3 tbsps Sweet Chili Sauce

  • 1 tsp Sriracha (do not add this if your child does not like spicy foods)

  • 4 cups Asparagus (trimmed)

  • 2 Zucchini (medium, sliced)

Directions

  1. Pre-heat the grill to medium heat.

  2. In a bowl, combine the chicken, half the oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Thread the chicken cubes onto the skewers. Refrigerate until ready to cook.

  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha (if using). Remove half of the sauce and set aside in the fridge until ready to eat.

  4. Toss the asparagus and zucchini with the remaining oil, salt, and pepper and transfer to a grill-safe pan.

  5. Grill the chicken over medium heat for about six to eight minutes. Flip and brush with the mayonnaise mixture. Cook for another six to eight minutes, or until cooked through.

  6. Meanwhile, add the veggies in the pan to the grill and cook for about five to six minutes or until cooked through.

  7. Divide the chicken skewers and veggies onto plates and drizzle the chicken with the remaining mayonnaise sauce from the fridge. Enjoy!
