Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Start by cutting boneless, skinless chicken thighs into 1-inch pieces and placing them into a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, vegetable oil, rice vinegar, minced garlic, ground ginger, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.
  3. Pour the honey soy marinade over the chicken pieces, tossing everything together until well-coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 350°F to 400°F, and soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes.
  5. Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers, leaving space between pieces.
  6. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  7. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
