Soak the skewers in water for at least 15 minutes to prevent burning if using wooden skewers.
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized chunks, about 1-inch cubes.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Drizzle the vegetable oil over the chicken and mix until the pieces are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece for even cooking.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or pan to prevent sticking.
Grill the chicken skewers for 5-6 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has an internal temperature of 165Β°F (75Β°C).
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the Buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the Buffalo sauce, butter, and honey. Stir until the butter melts and the sauce is smooth. Remove from heat.
Once the chicken skewers are cooked, brush the Buffalo sauce generously over each skewer, turning to coat all sides.
Optional: Grill the skewers for an additional 1-2 minutes after coating them in the sauce to slightly caramelize the surface.
Serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side and celery sticks, if desired.
