- Stir together the teriyaki sauce, preserves, ¼ cup cilantro leaves, lime juice, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and jalapeno in a medium bowl. Reserve 1/3 cup mixture and store covered in the refrigerator.
- Place chicken and remaining Sticky-Sweet Marinade in a large resealable bag and seal well; refrigerate for 2 hours (or up to 24 hours).
- Allow reserved marinade to come to room temperature. If using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes.
- Remove chicken from bag and discard bag and marinade. Thread chicken onto skewers. Cook on a well-oiled grill over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until chicken is cooked through. Remove from grill to a platter and drizzle with reserved marinade. Garnish with cilantro and lime zest, if desired.
