Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Skewers:
- 1½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1½-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
- Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Marinate the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken cubes and toss to coat evenly. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
- Skewer the Chicken: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving space between each piece. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil and place the skewers in a single layer.
- Air Fry: Air fry for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway, until chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over hot chicken skewers. Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20–30 minutes to prevent burning.
- You can add veggies like bell peppers or zucchini between chicken pieces for a colorful variation.
