  • Preheat the Grill to 350 degrees F. While grill is heating up skewer the chicken by placing 3-4 pieces of chicken on each skewer.
  • Place Skewers on the grill and cook for about 20 minutes. give the chicken on a stick a turn then continue to cook for another 15-20 minutes until the chicken reaches about 165 degrees F. Brush on the teriyaki glaze and cook for another 3-5 minutes. turn and brush on another coat.
  • Remove chicken skewers from the grill and brush on any remaining glaze. Serve on its own or over rice or noodles.

Notes

  • Make Sure you soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. This will Prevent the skewers from burning.
  • I love to serve chicken on a stick with a dipping sauce. You can use a Japanese BBQ sauce combined with equal parts mayo and its fantastic!!
  • You can also serve chicken on a stick over a bed or rice, stir fried veggies or even noodles.
