Delicious Sweet and Spicy Chicken Satay

This sweet and spicy chicken satay is a perfect blend of flavors with tender chicken skewers marinated in a delicious sauce. The sweetness comes from honey, while the spiciness comes from chili flakes and garlic. Grilling the skewers gives them a smoky flavor while keeping the chicken juicy and tender. Serve them with a peanut dipping sauce for a complete and satisfying meal.
