Teriyaki Chicken Skewers with Sesame Dipping Sauce

These skewers are genuinely simple but they look like you put in way more effort than you did. Marinate the chicken the night before, thread them in five minutes, and grill or broil right before guests arrive. The sesame dipping sauce takes two minutes to whisk together.
