🔪 Ingredients

  • Boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into chunks)
  • Bell peppers (mixed colors, chopped)
  • Red onion (chunked)
  • Motley Que Double Butter Grillin’ Oil
  • Motley Que Chicken Fixx
  • Motley Que Motley Mustard

🔥 Instructions

1. Prep the Chicken

In a large bowl, toss chicken pieces with Double Butter Grillin’ Oil until lightly coated.
Season generously with Chicken Fixx, ensuring even coverage.

Let sit for 20–30 minutes (or overnight for deeper flavor).

2. Build the Skewers

Thread chicken, bell peppers, and red onion onto skewers, alternating for even cooking and color.

Tip: Don’t overcrowd the skewers — space = better char.

3. Preheat the Grill or Smoker

Set your grill or smoker to 325–375°F (165–190°C).
Higher heat is key for achieving that signature char and caramelized finish.

4. Cook the Skewers

Place skewers on the grill and cook for 12–18 minutes, turning every few minutes for even cooking.

5. Glaze & Finish

During the last 3–4 minutes, brush skewers with Motley Mustard.
Let it caramelize slightly — this builds that sticky, tangy finish.

For extra char, sear briefly over direct heat for 1–2 minutes.

6. Check for Doneness

Cook until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

💥 Serve & Enjoy

Finish with a light extra brush of Motley Mustard and serve hot.

Perfect on their own or alongside fresh spring sides like grilled vegetables, salads, or cornbread.
