Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 8 slices of bacon halved
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Wooden or metal skewers if using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes

Method
 

  1. Heat your grill to a medium-high setting.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together honey, barbecue sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.
  3. Add chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
  4. Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, interspersing with halved bacon slices.
  5. Place the skewers on the hot grill and grill for approximately 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).
  6. Remove the skewers from the heat and let them sit for a few minutes before serving.
