Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Wooden or metal skewers (if using wooden, soak in water for 30 minutes)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes.
  2. In a bowl, mix chicken cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
  3. Thread the chicken pieces onto skewers, leaving small gaps between pieces.
  4. Place skewers in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  5. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. Let rest for 2 minutes before serving.
