Instructions

Soak wooden skewers in water if using them.
Line a baking sheet with parchment or foil. Turn on the broiler and set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heating element.
Put the chicken pieces in a large bowl.
Mix the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
Pour half the sauce over the chicken and toss to coat. Keep the other half for later. Thread the chicken onto skewers, or let excess sauce drip off and place the chicken directly on the sheet pan. Season with a little extra salt if you like.
Broil for 12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden on the outside.
Optionally, mix a little of the reserved sauce with diced pineapple, mango or avocado to make a salsa.
Brush the golden chicken with the reserved sauce and serve.
