Chinese Street Cart Chicken Skewers

• 1 pound chicken thighs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon dried cilantro
• 1/2 teaspoon white pepper powder
• 1/2 teaspoon five spice powder
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper powder
• 1 tablespoon smoked bourbon toragashi
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil

1. Start by soaking a couple of skewers in some water. You do this just so that the wood doesn't burn when you cook them. I find that just a couple minutes is good enough.
2. Cut up the chicken thighs into medium sized pieces. You should get around 6 -8 pieces per thigh.
3. Now you can start pushing the chicken pieces through the skewer. I normally do about 5 - 7 pieces per skewer.
4. Once you are ready to cook get your heaviest pan on a medium high flame with a little bit of oil and start searing those babies up. It will take about 3 minutes per side. I sometimes do it a little longer so I get the crunchy bits.
5. When they are all done, sprinkle with scallions or sesame seeds. Totally optional but I love both so I sprinkle them on!
