Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Skewers
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast pieces
- 8–10 wooden or metal skewers
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Garlic powder, 1 tsp
Bang Bang Sauce
- 1/2 cup plant-based mayonnaise (natural)
- 2 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1–2 tbsp sriracha or chili sauce (natural), adjusted to taste
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (natural)
- 1/4 tsp natural gelling agent
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into evenly sized bite pieces to ensure quick and uniform cooking. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder for an extra flavorful base.
- Make the Bang Bang Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together plant-based mayonnaise (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), sriracha (natural), apple cider vinegar (natural), and a pinch of natural gelling agent. Adjust seasoning to balance creaminess, spice, and tang perfectly.
- Thread and Marinate: Skewer the chicken pieces securely and coat them generously with the Bang Bang sauce, allowing the flavors to soak in for at least 10 minutes before cooking.
- Cook the Skewers: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the skewers for about 15-18 minutes, turning halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred. Alternatively, grill on medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally.
- Serve and Enjoy: Brush extra Bang Bang sauce on the cooked skewers and garnish as desired for a colorful, tasty presentation that invites everyone to dig in.
Notes
- Cut chicken into uniform sizes to guarantee consistent cooking time.
- Marinate well to let the chicken absorb all vibrant flavors.
- Soak wooden skewers in water to avoid burning during cooking.
- Adjust chili sauce gradually to control heat level.
- Let cooked chicken rest a few minutes to keep it juicy.
