You guys, these Sticky Honey Buffalo Chicken Fajita Kebabs need to be rushed to the top of your “to make” list.  Like ASAP.

I adapted them from my Sticky Honey Buffalo Hot Wings (insane!) because I needed another way to consume that multidimensional rub and delectable honey buffalo sauce.  Instead of using the spices as a rub, however, I’ve added them to the sauce/marinade so this chicken is super simple to make because all you make is ONE sauce that serves as both your marinade and your sauce which means these tender morsels are packed with double the spiced honey buffalo sauce through and through.

This easy yet tantalizing Honey Buffalo Sauce is brought to life simply by whisking together Frank’s Hot WINGS sauce, honey, soy sauce, molasses and a rainbow of spices such as smoked paprika (love the smokiness!), cumin, chili powder, garlic and onion powder.

You let your chicken marinate in some of the sauce and after the chicken kebabs are grilled, you dunk and douse and smother your chicken fajita kebabs in the reserved sauce so every inch is sticky honey buffalo-icious.  Because this sauce is amazing.  And these kebabs are amazing.  And you are amazing.  And more amazing if you make these kebabs – especially in the eyes of all that devour them.
