Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces

  • 3/4 cup buttermilk

  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons Sriracha, divided

  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 2-inch pieces

  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into 2-inch pieces

  • 1 onion, cut into 2-inch wedges

  • 8 mushrooms, stems removed

  • 1/3 cup sweet Thai chili sauce

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise

  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, for oiling grill grates

  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

  • 1 lime, cut into wedges (optional)

Directions

  1. Combine chicken breast pieces, buttermilk, and 2 tablespoons sriracha in a bowl. Stir to combine, and let stand at room temperature while the grill heats.

  2. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.

  3. Thread chicken pieces, bell pepper wedges, onion wedges, and mushrooms onto metal skewers, alternating and evenly dividing the chicken and vegetables.

  4. For bang bang sauce, stir remaining sriracha, sweet Thai chili sauce, soy sauce, mayonnaise, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt together in a small bowl. Reserve 1/2 of the sauce for serving.

  5. When the grill is hot, pour cooking oil on a folded paper towel, and use tongs to oil the hot grill grates.

  6. Place skewers on the oiled grates, brush skewers with sauce, close the grill lid and grill 2 to 3 minutes. Turn skewers a quarter turn, brush with sauce, close the lid and grill 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat until all sides are lightly charred, chicken is no longer pink at the center, and juices run clear, 4 to 8 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the center should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

    Cook’s Note

    Watch for flare-ups. If the grill flares up, move skewers to a cooler part of the grill and continue cooking.

  7. Remove skewers from the grill to a serving platter, tent with foil, and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.

  8. Garnish with thinly sliced green onion and lime wedges. Serve with reserved sauce.

Anise Waffle Cookies

Anise Waffle Cookies

This is a waffle cookie seasoned with anise seed and anise oil. It is baked on a waffle iron. It is not a really sweet cookie, but it was sent to soldiers during WWII because they keep well and the flavor seems to get better with each passing day. Lasts about 2 weeks unrefrigerated. Handed down from my German-Swiss grandmother. You can also use lemon or vanilla flavoring instead of the anise seed and oil; of course, it changes the flavor completely, but if you're looking for a nice 'not too sweet' cookie, this recipe is a good place to start. My children love making these - it's fun, it's easy.
