step by step

Method

  1. Season and thread the chicken

    • Slice the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and combine in a bowl with the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, onion powder and cayenne pepper.
    • Thread onto the skewers, leaving a gap at both ends and keeping the pieces compact so they stay juicy.
    Step 1
  2. Air fry the skewers

    • Place the skewers in the air fryer and cook at 200 °C / 400 °F.
    Step 2
  3. Make the garlic parmesan butter

    • Combine the softened butter with the parmesan, garlic, parsley, salt and pepper.
    • The butter should be soft enough to brush but not fully melted; microwave in 5 second blasts until creamy.
    Step 3
  4. Flip, baste and finish cooking

    • Flip the skewers with tongs and brush with a third of the butter.
    • Air fry, then flip and brush with another third of the butter.
    • Air fry again until lightly charred outside and piping hot through the centre (safe internal temp 74 °C / 165 °F).
    Step 4
  5. Final baste and serve

    • Remove the skewers and brush with the remaining butter.
    • Sprinkle over more parmesan and parsley while still hot if desired.
