Ingredients

3 servings

1 pound chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
wood skewers (optional)
1 1/2 tablespoon honey
1 chipotle pepper in adobo, minced
1 clove garlic, grated
2 tablespoons taco seasoning (I like the Siete brand)
1 orange, zest and juice (1-2 teaspoons zest and 1 tablespoon juice)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon avocado oil

Steps

Soak the skewers in water for 15-30 minutes while you prep the chicken.
Using your hands or tongs, mix the chicken with the honey chipotle mix. It’ll look saucy and messy, in a good way.
Thread the chicken pieces onto skewers (usually I get 4 skewers with a pound of chicken).
You can cook these a number of different ways – I air fry them at 400 degrees for 10 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Grilling would also be amazing! Finish with a drizzle of honey, or (yum) 2 tablespoons of melted butter mixed with honey. It’s so good!
