Preparation
  1. Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Slice chicken breasts into uniform, bite-sized pieces.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic powder, ginger powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Pour over chicken and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. In another bowl, combine mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha. Mix until smooth and set aside.
  5. Thread marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving space between each piece.
  6. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F or 190°C).
