Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers

These savory skewers bring back memories of family gatherings, where the irresistible aroma of garlic and Parmesan filled the air. Let’s recreate those cherished moments together!

Ingredients:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions:

Marinate the Chicken:

In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Prepare the Skewers:

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece for even cooking.
Cook the Skewers:

Place the skewers in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Air fry for 8 minutes.
Carefully flip the skewers, then air fry for an additional 7 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Add Garlic Parmesan Coating:

While the chicken is cooking, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.
Serve:

Once the chicken skewers are cooked, brush them generously with the garlic Parmesan sauce.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve warm and enjoy!
