Make the marinade
Add all the marinade ingredients to a medium-size pot
Bring to a low simmer and cook for 15 minutes. The sauce should be sticky, and darker in deep red color.
Prepare the chicken thighs
Cut into 1” bite-size pieces. Set aside.
Marinate the chicken
Cool down your sauce.
Use ¼ cup of the sauce as the marinade.
Marinate the chicken thigh pieces for 1 hour or overnight for best results.
Keep the rest of your sauce in an airtight container and store it in the fridge. This will be your BBQ sauce for basting.
Skewer the chicken
If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to grilling.
When you are ready to grill, skewer the chicken thighs closely together.
Grilling the chicken skewers
Preheat your barbeque, make sure it is on low when cooking the chicken.
Start basting right away with the reserved marinade to start developing the flavors.
The chicken skewers should be done in 15 minutes, with an internal temperature of 165 ºF.
