Directions

In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, olive oil, and minced garlic until the sugar is fully dissolved.

Add the chicken strips to the marinade, tossing well to coat every piece. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
-
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or prepare an indoor griddle pan.
-
Thread the marinated chicken strips onto soaked bamboo skewers, leaving a small gap between pieces for even grilling.

Grill the skewers for 5 minutes on each side, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice char marks.
-
Remove from heat and let rest for 2 minutes before serving.
