Ingredients
No main ingredients listed.
Chicken Marinade
- 1 1/2 lb chicken thighs
- 3 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp seasoning salt
- a half lemon
- 1 fl oz mayonnaise
- 1 fl oz olive oil
Garlic Parmesan Herb Butter
- 4 oz butter
- 8 garlic cloves
- 1 7/10 fl oz parmesan cheese
- 0.51 fl oz hot sauce
- 0.68 tbsp chili flakes
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley
Instructions
- 1In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, seasoning salt, the juice of half a lemon, mayonnaise, and olive oil; stir until every piece is evenly coated.
- 2Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate at room temperature for 5 minutes while you prepare the herb butter.
- 3In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter.
- 4Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.
- 5Stir in the grated parmesan cheese, hot sauce, chili flakes, and chopped fresh parsley; mix well and remove the pan from heat.
- 6Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto metal or soaked wooden skewers, leaving a little space between pieces for even cooking.
- 7Brush each skewer generously with the garlic‑parmesan herb butter, ensuring both sides are coated.
- 8Preheat the air fryer to 392°F (400°F).
- 9Arrange the skewers in a single layer in the air‑fryer basket, making sure they do not touch.
- 10Cook for 8–10 minutes, turning the skewers halfway through, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 167°F (165°F) and the exterior is lightly crisp.
- 11Remove the skewers from the air fryer, let them rest for 2 minutes, then serve immediately with your favorite side.
