Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs. Chicken Thighs (boneless, skinless) cut into 1" cubes
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • ½ tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Salt

Chipotle BBQ Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon Avocado Oil
  • 2 tablespoon Onion finely chopped
  • 1 Garlic Cloves minced
  • ½ cup Ketchup
  • 2 tablespoon Water
  • ½ tablespoon Chili Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Mustard
  • 2 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
  • ½ tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Chipotle in Adobo Sauce
  • 3 tablespoon Brown Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Make BBQ Sauce: Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat, add onions and cook until translucent. Add garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Add remaining ingredients and stir until combined. Bring to a low simmer and cook for about 10 minutes or until sauce lightly thickens. Remove from heat.
  • Heat the grill to medium heat (about 350 degrees).
  • Place cubed chicken on skewers and season all sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Once the grill is hot, place skewered chicken on lightly oiled grill. Turn the skewers every 3-4 minutes until the chicken is cooked through (internal temp 165 degrees), about 20-30 minutes. During the last few turns baste with chipotle barbecue sauce.

Notes

*If you are using wooden skewers, you can soak them in water for a few hours prior to grilling to prevent them from burning.
