Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, freshly grated
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 10 pieces Wooden skewers
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch thick strips for easy skewering.
In a large bowl, whisk together honey, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the chicken strips to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate for at least 1 hour in a cooler or refrigerator. For better flavor, marinate overnight.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and thread each strip onto the soaked wooden skewers. Discard the leftover marinade.
Prepare a campfire or portable grill with medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the chicken skewers for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and has a slight char. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the Honey Balsamic Chicken Satay warm, optionally with lemon wedges on the side for added brightness.
