Honey Chicken Skewers

Tonight we tried this new recipes Honey Chicken Skewers I'll be honest though...there were no skewers...Small children and pointy wooden sticks don't mix well :) Here's the recipe w/out the corn as it was shown on Realsimple.com


1/2 c ketchup (organic in this house)
2 T honey
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1-1/2lbs of boneless skinless chicken breast (I just used 2 whole chicken breasts)
salt & pepper
oil for the grill

Place 20 eight inch wooden skewers to soak. Heat grill to med high. In a small bowl mix mix together ketchup, honey and worcestershire sauce; set aside. Slice the chicken lengthwise into 20 half-inch thick strips and thread each strip onto a skewer. Season with salt & pepper. Lightly oil the grill. Cook the chicken, turning occasionally, until cooked thru ~ about 6-8 min. Baste with the ketchup mixture during the last 2 min.


** some notes. Mine were probably a little thicker than 1/2 inch ~ and if you do keep them thicker the skewers aren't necessary (saving you some time!). Also our grill is buried in snow so I used our cast iron grill pan in the oven. It took a bit longer in the oven, but it worked great otherwise! I served this with just some corn on the cob. This recipe is said to serve four.
