Steps
Cut the provolone into six thick sticks and thread each stick onto a wooden skewer, leaving part of the skewer exposed for holding.
In a bowl, combine the ground chicken with the paprika, black pepper, salt, and oregano until the spices are evenly distributed.
Divide the chicken mixture into six portions. Completely wrap each provolone stick with one portion of chicken, pressing and sealing the ends well so the cheese is enclosed.
Beat the egg in a shallow dish or small bowl.
Dip each chicken-covered skewer into the beaten egg, making sure to coat the entire surface.
Coat each skewer with breadcrumbs, pressing gently so the breading adheres on all sides.
Lightly spray the breaded skewers with cooking spray. Preheat the air fryer to 340 °F (170 °C) (170 °C (350 °F)), if required by the model.
Place the skewers in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving space between them for air circulation.
Cook at 340 °F (170 °C) (170 °C (350 °F)) for 18 minutes, or until the breading is golden brown and the chicken is fully cooked. Make sure the center reaches 165 °F (74 °C) (74 °C (165 °F)) and that no pink areas remain.
Remove the skewers from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes before serving, as the cheese will be very hot and melted.
Notes
The amounts of egg, breadcrumbs, spices, and oil were not specified in the source; practical estimates are provided. Do not overcrowd the basket. If the cheese spills out during cooking, it indicates that the chicken was not completely sealed around the provolone.
