Step 1
Cut the 1 lb chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and thread onto skewers, about 4 pieces per skewer. Season with 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper.
Step 2
Set up a breading station: place 0.5 cup flour, 2 beaten eggs, and 1 cup panko in three separate shallow bowls.
Step 3
Dredge each skewer in flour, dip in egg, then coat with panko, pressing gently to adhere. Repeat until all skewers are breaded.
Step 4
Grill over medium-hot charcoal, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. The chicken should feel firm and juices run clear.
Step 5
Serve hot with lemon wedges or your favorite dipping sauce.
