Notes / Tips

  • Do not overcrowd the basket, or the chicken will not crisp well.

  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes to prevent burning.

  • For extra crisp, cook 1–2 minutes longer at the end.

Variations

  • Use chicken breast for a leaner version.

  • Add lime juice for a fresher flavor.

  • Make it milder by reducing sriracha.
