1
Start by soaking a couple of skewers in some water. You do this just so that the wood doesn't burn when you cook them. I find that just a couple minutes is good enough.
2
Cut up the chicken thighs into medium sized pieces. You should get around 6 -8 pieces per thigh.
3
Now you can start pushing the chicken pieces through the skewer. I normally do about 5 - 7 pieces per skewer.
4
Once you are ready to cook get your heaviest pan on a medium high flame with a little bit of oil and start searing those babies up. It will take about 3 minutes per side. I sometimes do it a little longer so I get the crunchy bits.
5
When they are all done, sprinkle with scallions or sesame seeds. Totally optional but I love both so I sprinkle them on!
