Recipe View Serve immediately. For an extra burst of flavor, serve with a side of ranch dressing for dipping.

For best results, use high-quality, thick-cut bacon. This will ensure that the bacon stays on the skewer and crisps up nicely during grilling.
Soaking the bamboo skewers prevents them from burning on the grill.
If you don't have a grill, these skewers can also be cooked in a grill pan or under a broiler.
Adjust the amount of chili paste to your liking for a milder or spicier flavor.
To avoid overcooking the chicken, use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
