Ingredients

• 1 lb Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 3 tbsp Soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp Hoisin sauce
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
• 1 tsp Sesame oil
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 0.5 tsp Ground white pepper
• 2 Scallions, thinly sliced for garnish
• 1 tbsp Sesame seeds for garnish
• 8 Bamboo skewers, soaked in water

Directions

Step 1

Cut the boneless, skinless chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1 inch cubes. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, vegetable oil, and ground white pepper until well combined.

Step 3

Add the chicken pieces to the bowl with the marinade. Toss well to ensure all the chicken is evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 4

Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.

Step 5

Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked bamboo skewers, ensuring you leave a little space between each piece for even cooking.

Step 6

Grill the skewers over medium-high heat for 4–5 minutes on each side, basting occasionally with the remaining marinade, until the chicken is fully cooked and slightly charred. Alternatively, broil the skewers in the oven on a wire rack for a similar amount of time, turning once halfway through.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked skewers to a serving platter. Garnish with thinly sliced scallions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

Step 8

Serve hot with steamed rice, a side salad, or dipping sauces of your choice. Enjoy your flavorful Jee Bow Gai Asian Skewers!
