With just four ingredients, you can make one killer of a grilled dinner.  These Spicy Chipotle Honey Chicken Kebabs are bursting with spicy-sweet flavor!

Boom.  Day 2 of the TABASCO 10 Challenge and this is probably (it is) my favorite recipe of the bunch.  I know, I guess as the parent of these recipes I’m not supposed to have a “favorite” and should love them all equally.

I do love them all… but I have just a little bit extra love for these super easy 4 ingredient chicken kebabs. Asheley agrees.  These kebabs rock.  She couldn’t believe the flavor party going on in her mouth was the result of 4 simple ingredients.

And better yet, this is a recipe even the most inept home cook can totally pull off and gain some serious grilling cred with their family.  Trust me… you’ve got this.  Spicy Chipotle Honey Chicken Kebabs for the win.

So just as a reminder what we’re doing here this week… I’ve been tasked to create 5 recipes, 5 days in a row, with just these 10 ingredients.  And anyone that knows me knows that I love a challenge (as long as it has to do with whisks and spatulas and not hammers or power tools).

I knew instantly I wanted to play with the spicy-sweet thing

…because hello, spicy and sweet were made for each other, just like Ben (Affleck) and Jen (Garner).  What, they just broke up?  The horror.  

Let’s try that again.

…because hello, spicy and sweet were made for each other, just like Ben and Jerry.  That’s a pair that’ll always stay together 😉

But I never knew just how good the Chipotle TABASCO with honey would really be… it’s pretty magical.

And hey, if you want to complete this meal with some rice and grilled veggies, I’m sure your family would be appreciative.  And now that I have you thinking about Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, you can treat them to some dessert as well.

Oh, and bonuses: these Spicy Chipotle Honey Chicken Kebabs are gluten free and kinda paleo friendly (well, depending on what level of paleo-ness you are trying to achieve).

Spicy Chipotle Honey Chicken Kebabs

With just four ingredients, you can make one killer of a grilled dinner. These Spicy Chipotle Honey Chicken Kebabs are bursting with spicy-sweet flavor!

• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins
• Total Time: 20 minutes
• Yield: Serves 4 1x

Scale 1x2x3x

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons TABASCO Chipotle Sauce
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Cut chicken into 1 1/2″ chunks, removing any gristle or large pieces of fat.
2. Combine honey, olive oil, and Chipotle Tabasco in a small mixing bowl. Season with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
3. Place chicken and all but 1/4 cup of the marinade into a ziploc bag. Shake, jiggle, and massage the bag around gently to cover the chicken in the marinade. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or up to overnight. Reserve remaining 1/4 cup marinade.
4. Preheat grill over medium heat. Divide chicken between 8 skewers. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes to avoid them burning on the grill.
5. Grill kebabs, turning once or twice, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
6. Transfer chicken kebabs to a serving platter and brush with the reserved 1/4 cup of marinade.
7. Serve with rice and some grilled vegetables for one heck of a meal.

Notes

Make sure to use the Chipotle Sauce variety of Tabasco!
