Ingredients

  • 15 bamboo skewers (6 inch)
  • 3 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb/500 g)
  • 4 large green onions
  • 1 package (2.1 oz) fully cooked bacon (14 pieces)
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) barbecue sauce

Steps

  •  
    1
    Soak skewers in water at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. Meanwhile, cut each chicken breast in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise to make 10 (about 1-inch) pieces. Cut onions into 2-inch pieces (30 pieces total). Cut bacon slices in half crosswise.
