Asian Chicken on a Stick
- 15 whole Boneless/skinless Chicken Thighs, Trimmed Of Excess Fat
- 10 whole Bamboo Skewers
- 1/2 cups Soy Sauce
- 3/4 cups Pineapple Juice
- 3/4 cups Cola (no Diet)
- 4 cloves Garlic, Crushed
- 1 teaspoon Ginger Paste
- 1 teaspoon Chinese Five Spice
- 1/2 teaspoons Black Pepper, Ground Fresh
- 1/2 teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes
- 1/2 cups Chili Sauce (Heinz, Of Course)
- 13 cups Hoisin Sauce
- 1/4 cups Rice Wine Vinegar
- 1/4 cups Pepper Jelly
- 1/4 teaspoons Chinese Five Spice
- Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a large zip-top bag, seal and shake gently to combine.
- Add the chicken thighs to the bag, seal (removing the excess air) and squish the chicken around to ensure even coverage.
- Put the bag in a bowl or baking dish and refrigerate for four hours.
- Combine all of the glaze ingredients in a small sauce pan.
- Bring the glaze just to a boil over medium heat.
- Remove from the heat and set aside.
- If you plan to use bamboo skewers, soak them submerged in water for at least an hour.
- Prepare your grill for indirect cooking at medium-high heat (about 375 F).
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and drain well.
- Slide three pieces of chicken onto a pair of parallel skewers (about an inch apart).
- Repeat with the remaining thighs.
- Grill the chicken over direct heat for about two minutes, or until they are seared nicely.
- Flip the skewers over and sear the other side.
- Move the skewers to the indirect side of the grill and cook them until the internal temperature is 165 F (about 10-15 minutes).
- Brush both sides of the chicken with the glaze and quickly move them over the direct heat for a minute or so.
- You just want the glaze to get sticky and lightly browned.
- Flip the skewers over and cook another minute.
- Remove the skewers from the grill, coat them again with the glaze.
- Serve and enjoy!
