Ingredients
- 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
- 1/2 cup low-sugar BBQ sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 bell pepper, cut into squares
- 1 onion, cut into squares
Method
- In a bowl, combine chicken, olive oil, BBQ sauce, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (400°F).
- Thread the marinated chicken, bell pepper, and onion onto skewers, alternating between ingredients.
- Place the skewers in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until chicken is cooked through.
- Remove from air fryer and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Pro tips for maximum crisp
- For maximum crispiness, ensure the chicken pieces are evenly sized and not overcrowded in the air fryer.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat in the air fryer for best results.
- Try adding different vegetables or using shrimp for a tasty variation!
