Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together peach preserves, soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Add chicken thighs, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  3. Once marinated, alternate threading marinated chicken thighs and peach chunks onto skewers.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (375°F to 400°F). Grill skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked.
  5. Let skewers cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
