- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 4 tablespoons Thai chili garlic sauce or sambal oelek
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon monk fruit granulated, omit if using coconut aminos

- 1 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite size pieces
- fresh herbs such as basil, cilantro, and mint, to serve, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450ºF and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Add a bit of avocado oil to the foil to prevent sticking and set aside.
- Combine monk fruit, vinegar, chili, coconut aminos, ginger, and garlic. Add chicken and coat the pieces evenly. Thread the coated chicken onto the skewers. Lay the skewers onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 15 minutes at 450ºF. Finish with a quick broil to lightly char. Serve with fresh herbs, if desired.
Notes
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water at least 1 hour before grilling.
You can also grill this. To to do, heat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill chicken over medium high heat, turning occasionally until the chicken cooked through, about 10 minutes.
