Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for a kick)
- Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken cubes, olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well and allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto the skewers, soaking wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes beforehand.

- Once cooked, carefully remove from the air fryer and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes

- Add chunks of vegetables like bell peppers for a colorful meal.
