Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Salt to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Wooden skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes prior to grilling)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Marinade: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly until the marinade is well blended.

    Marinate the Chicken: Take a large zip-top bag or a bowl and add the chicken pieces. Pour the honey mustard marinade over the chicken, ensuring that each piece is completely coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl securely, and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes, allowing flavors to meld, or up to 4 hours for a more intense flavor.

      Preheat Your Grill: While the chicken marinates, preheat your grill to medium-high heat, aiming for around 375°F (190°C). If you are using a grill pan, warm it over medium-high heat on the stovetop.

        Skewering the Chicken: After marinating, thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers. Be sure to leave small gaps between each piece to promote even cooking.

          Grill the Chicken Bites: Place the prepared skewers on the grill and cook for approximately 12-15 minutes. Turn the skewers occasionally to ensure even cooking on all sides. The chicken is done when it turns golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). For added flavor, brush any remaining marinade over the chicken during grilling.

            Serve and Garnish: Once grilled to perfection, remove the skewers from the grill. Allow the chicken to rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Arrange the skewers on a serving platter and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant presentation.

              Enjoy! Serve the chicken bites warm alongside your favorite dipping sauces or a refreshing salad for a delightful meal.
