Ingredients:
1/2 cup | (packed) light brown sugar |
1/2 cup | unseasoned rice vinegar |
1/3 cup | hot chili paste (such as sambal oelek) |
1/4 cup | fish sauce (such as nam pla or nuoc nam) |
1/4 cup | sriracha |
2 teaspoons | finely grated peeled ginger |
1 1/2 pounds | skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1 1/2-inch–2-inch pieces |
8 | bamboo skewers soaked in water at least 1 hour |
Directions:
Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Whisk brown sugar, vinegar, chili paste, fish sauce, Sriracha, and ginger in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Thread 4 or 5 chicken pieces onto each skewer.
Transfer marinade to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until reduced by half (about 1 cup), 7–10 minutes.
Grill chicken, turning and basting often with reduced marinade, until cooked through, 8–10 minutes.
