Meat Quality
Use high-quality, fresh chicken thighs or breasts for the best flavor and texture. Ensure the chicken is evenly cut into pieces for uniform cooking.
Marinade Time
Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or ideally several hours, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat. Don't marinate for too long though (overnight might make the chicken mushy).
Grilling Technique
Use medium heat to prevent burning the outside before the inside is cooked through. Turn the skewers regularly to ensure even cooking on all sides.
Don't overcrowd skewer
Do not overcrowd the skewer, leaving enough space between the chicken pieces to allow for even cooking and airflow.
