Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into uniform 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
- Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and chop the bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini into similar-sized pieces.
- Marinate the Chicken: Whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken to the marinade and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Assemble the Skewers: Thread marinated chicken and vegetables onto skewers, alternating ingredients.
- Air Fry the Skewers: Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Cook skewers for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway, until chicken is cooked and vegetables are tender.
- Serve: Let skewers rest for a few minutes before serving, garnished with fresh herbs and your favorite dipping sauce.
