3 tablespoons agave nectar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely minced

Instructions
- Mix all marinade ingredients except chicken in a medium bowl and set aside.
- Cut the thighs into strips about a half inch wide.
- Place chicken strips into marinade and marinate refrigerated for two hours.
- Soak about 12 eight-inch wooden skewers submerged in water while the chicken marinates.

- Skewer 2-3 pieces of chicken onto each skewer by poking one end with the skewer and weaving it in and out through each piece.
- Once complete, pat the skewers with paper towels to remove any excess marinade. Discard the marinade.
- Heat grill (a large ribbed grill pan may be used indoors) to high heat and once hot, brush with a little peanut oil.
