Summer is the peak of outdoor barbecue parties. But if you can't get out into nature, I suggest making delicious chicken skewers with nectarines on skewers in the oven in Asian style. The chicken meat marinated in sweet and sour honey sauce becomes exceptionally juicy. A hint of spiciness adds a tangy and Asian touch to it. Combined with the fragrant nectarines, the skewers turn out amazingly tasty. Definitely make these skewers during nectarine season and you will be pleasantly surprised by their unique taste.

Prepare the chicken fillet for the skewers. To do this, remove the veins from the fillet. Cut the meat into small pieces. There is no need to trim the fat from the fillet. It will melt during cooking and give the meat additional juiciness. In this recipe, you can replace chicken fillet with turkey thigh fillet. In this case, you will need to increase the cooking time for the skewers, as turkey takes a little longer to cook than chicken.

Prepare the sauce for the chicken skewers with nectarines. Add honey, vegetable oil, and pour soy sauce into a cup. Add red chili flakes. Mix everything well until all the ingredients are fully combined. For extra spiciness, you can replace vegetable oil with sesame oil. Pour the chicken fillet with the resulting sauce. Mix and let it marinate for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the nectarines.

Thoroughly rinse and dry the nectarines. Cut each nectarine in half and remove the pit and stem. It is recommended to use small, firm nectarines for best results, as they will remain wonderfully fragrant and juicy. You can try substituting apricots for nectarines, as they will give the meat a very interesting aroma and pleasant aftertaste.

Prepare skewers with nectarines in Asian style. For this, you will need wooden skewers. To make it easier to remove the meat from the skewers, it is recommended to soak them in cold water for 10-15 minutes. Thread a half nectarine onto the skewer, followed by chicken, and then another nectarine. Continue threading them alternately. The quantity of nectarines and chicken fillet can be adjusted according to your preferences.

Prepare a baking dish for chicken skewers with nectarines in the oven. Line the dish with parchment paper or baking paper. Alternatively, you can use foil, which will make it easier to clean the dish afterwards. The size of the dish doesn't matter, as long as the skewers fit evenly inside. Place the skewers with nectarines in the prepared dish. Put the dish in the middle of a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius. Bake for 15-20 minutes. The baking time depends on the size of your fillet pieces and the oven parameters. Avoid overcooking the skewers, as they may become dry and the meat won't be as juicy.

Remove the cooked skewers from the oven and leave them in the dish for 7 minutes. This allows the juices to distribute evenly throughout the meat fibers. Prepare some parsley sprigs. Rinse and dry them well. Remove the tough stems. Finely chop the parsley leaves. Sprinkle the cooked skewers with nectarines with the chopped parsley.
