Yield: 4-6 kebabs

Ingredients

1 pound boneless chicken thighs
2 bell peppers
1/2 cup dark soy sauce
2 tablespoons dry sherry
2 teaspoons salt and pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 garlic cloves
Fresh ginger, grated
Scallions, to garnish

Directions

Cut chicken and peppers into 1-inch slices and place in a shallow dish.
In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, sherry, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic salt, brown sugar, garlic cloves, and ginger. Bring to a simmer and cook for 7 minutes, until thickened. Reserve 2 tablespoons sauce for serving. Pour remaining sauce over chicken, cover, and chill for at least 1 hour (and up to 4 hours).
If using wooden or bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 1 hour. Preheat grill or broiler. Thread chicken and pepper pieces onto skewers, and grill or broil, turning halfway (about 6 minutes for thighs).
Drizzle with reserved sauce and garnish with scallions.
