Ingredients
  • 2 pounds Boneless Chicken Thighs (900g)
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 1/4 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
Instructions
  • Cut the chicken into 1.5 – 2 inch bite sized pieces.
  • To make the marinade Mix all the spices and herbs with the olive oil and lemon juice (in a large bowl).
  • Place the meat in the marinade and toss until they are completely covered. Place them in the fridge for 40 minutes (you can actually leave them overnight for more flavor).
  • To prevent the bamboo skewers from burning in the air fryer, soak them in water for at about 10 minutes. Then, thread the meat.
  • Place the chicken skewers in the air fryer basket (line it with parchment paper first). You may need to air fry them in batches.
  • Air fry at 390F (200C) for 13-15 minutes and flip halfway through cooking. 
  • Remove from the air fryer and serve with your favorite dipping sauce and side dish. Enjoy!
