Sweet and slighty spicy chicken kabobs

Approximately I lb. Chicken chunks ) I placed on 2 wooden skewers 





I make a sauce ( similar to a marinade)with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, sugar,soy sauce ,red pepper and a few tablespoons vegetable oil.  I didn’t have sesame oil but would have used it.

Placed chicken cubes in a large zip lock bag and added the sauce. Moved the chicken around to coat and refrigerated it until I decided either to bake, broil or use my grille pan.

I decided to bake at 350°for approximately 15 to
25 minutes. ***I then broiled them for a few minutes more to try to brown them some. Note: I turned them over at 15 minutes and baked 10 minutes more. I then broiled them. I hope that’s clear… there was no pink inside.

I sprinkled after with parsley before serving.

I’m a bit under the weather so excuse any confusion in directions.
