I loved this recipe. I added more soy sauce than the recipe called for (3 tbls) and also added some green onion. Instead of using skewers I shaped them into thin oval patties and they turned out great. I would recommend turning the chicken a few times wiht tongs during the broiling process so you don't burn or over cook them. I skipped the chili part all together and used wasabi mustard for wasabi mayo as I had it on hand instead of the wasabi paste. I would definitely make these again!
