– ½ cup mayonnaise
– 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
– 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust for spiciness)

Instructions
Creating Bang Bang Chicken Skewers is a quick and enjoyable process if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Skewers: If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
2. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken pieces in a plastic bag or glass dish. Add half of the sauce mixture to the chicken and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
4. Preheat the Grill: While the chicken marinates, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
5. Skewering the Chicken: Once marinated, thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers.
6. Grill the Skewers: Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
7. Baste with Sauce: In the last few minutes of grilling, brush the skewers with the reserved sauce (the half that was not used for marinating).
8. Remove from Grill: Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
9. Garnish: Before serving, sprinkle with fresh cilantro or chopped green onions for an extra touch of flavor.
By following these simple steps, you’ll have a batch of delicious Bang Bang Chicken Skewers ready to impress your guests.
