Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and 1 tbsp water in a bowl until combined.

  2. Step 2

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  4. Step 4

    Sear skewers 2 minutes per side without moving, then reduce heat to medium.

  5. Step 5

    Pour glaze over skewers and cook 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until caramelized.

  6. Step 6

    Transfer to a plate and let rest 1 minute before serving.
