Method

Directions

In a food processor, combine honey, chipotle chilies, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, and cumin to create a flavorful marinade. Blend until smooth.
Place the bite-sized chicken pieces in a bowl and pour half of the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to overnight.
While the chicken marinates, soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
After marinating, thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F to 400°F.
Place the chicken skewers on the grill and grill each side for about 2-5 minutes until charred and cooked through.
Remove from the grill and let them rest for a minute. Serve alongside the remaining marinade.
