Make Marinade:
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, soy sauce, lime juice, lime zest, garlic, chili powder, red pepper flakes, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Marinate Chicken:
Add chicken pieces to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (up to 8 hours for more flavor).
Preheat Grill:
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Assemble Skewers:

Grill:
Grill skewers for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken is fully cooked and slightly charred.
Serve:
Garnish with chopped cilantro and lime wedges. Serve hot!
