INGREDIENTS
Origin:
These skewers are inspired by tropical barbecue flavors. Sauce Pantry’s Mango Habanero Sauce adds a perfect combination of sweetness and heat, making these chicken skewers a crowd-pleasing favorite for any summer grill session or weeknight dinner.
Pro Tips:
- Soak Wooden Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Even Cooking: Cut chicken and vegetables into similar-sized pieces to ensure even grilling.
Things to Watch Out For:
- Don’t Overcook: Chicken can dry out quickly on the grill. Cook just until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
- Sauce Timing: Brush the Mango Habanero Sauce on the chicken during the last few minutes of grilling to prevent the sugars from burning.
Process:

Prepare the Skewers:
