Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb chicken breast (cut into bite-sized cubes)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp paprika
• salt (to taste)
• black pepper (to taste)
• 4 tbsp Challenge butter (melted)
• 3 garlic (minced)
• 0.5 cup parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
• 1 tbsp parsley (finely chopped)

Steps

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine the cubed chicken breast with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.

2. 2

   Thread the seasoned chicken onto wooden or metal skewers.

3. 3

   Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place the skewers in the air fryer basket in a single layer, working in batches if necessary.

4. 4

   Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).

5. 5

   While the chicken cooks, prepare the sauce by whisking together the melted butter, minced garlic, grated parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley in a small bowl.

6. 6

   Once the skewers are done, remove them from the air fryer and immediately brush or drizzle the garlic parmesan butter mixture generously over the hot chicken.

Notes

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes prior to use to prevent burning. Serve immediately while the butter sauce is warm.
