  • If you don't have wooden skewers, you can use metal skewers. Just be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using so they don't burn.
  • To make the marinade, you can use either fresh or frozen mango. If using frozen mango, thaw it completely before using.
  • If you don't have honey, you can use maple syrup or agave nectar as a substitute.
  • For a spicier kabob, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the marinade.
  • If you're short on time, you can skip the marinating step and cook the chicken kabobs immediately.
  • Serve the mango chicken kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tzatziki, yogurt sauce, or mango chutney.

These mango chicken kabobs are a delicious and easy-to-make summer meal. They're perfect for grilling outdoors or cooking in the oven. The marinade infuses the chicken with flavor, and the mango adds a sweet and tangy touch. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
