Steps:
- Soak the bamboo skewers: If using bamboo skewers, soak them in warm water for 30 minutes.
- Marinate the chicken: In a bowl large enough to hold the chicken, stir together the brown sugar, vinegar, lime juice, fish sauce, sriracha, and ginger. Add the chicken strips and toss to coat. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight. You can also marinate them in a resealable gallon-sized plastic bag to save space in the fridge, if you prefer.
- Prepare the grill: For charcoal grills: Light one chimney full of coals and when they are covered with ash, spread them out evenly. Allow the grill grates to heat for 5 minutes. With a pair of tongs, dip a folded square of paper towel in oil and generously oil the grates. For a gas grill: Heat the grill on high heat for about 20 minutes. With a pair of tongs, dip a folded square of paper towel in oil and generously oil the grates.

GRILLED CHICKEN SATE WITH SPICY PEANUT SAUCE
This is really delicious and fun to eat!! It is a bit time consuming because of all the chopping, but it's worth it! Good to make on a weekend. The sauce can also be made days in advance and refrigerated. If the peanut sauce is too thick for you just add more chicken stock little by little until you get your desired texture.

From Barbecue Recipes, this is a simple and tasty kabob. We like spicy at our house, but this was a tad bit too spicy for us. Decrease the amount of cayenne if you'd like.
