Ingredients
  

Chicken and Marinade
  • 2 lbs chicken tenders (thighs or breast)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 stick butter
  • 8-10 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup parmesan (grated)
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce
  • 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 1/3 cup fresh parsley (minced)
  • 1.5 tbsp dry ranch seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Equipment

  • air fryer
  • Wooden skewers
  • Microwave-safe bowl

Method
 

Preparation and Cooking
  1. Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Combine chicken seasoning mixture in a small bowl and set aside.
  3. Cut chicken into 3” pieces and toss with olive oil and spices in a large bowl or ziptop bag, coating well.
  4. Pack the chicken onto each skewer tightly with no space in between. Snip the top of the skewers if needed to fit in the air fryer.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat butter and garlic until partially melted.
  6. Add red pepper flakes, hot sauce, seasonings, and parmesan to the bowl and whisk until combined.
  7. Scoop out 1/3 of the sauce for basting the par-cooked chicken, reserving the remaining sauce for basting the cooked chicken.
  8. Cook 2-3 skewers at a time in the air fryer at 400 degrees for 5 minutes.
  9. Remove, flip skewers, baste with sauce, and return to cook an additional 2 minutes at 400 degrees.
  10. Flip back, baste with more sauce, and cook another 5-6 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
  11. Once cooked, baste with the reserved garlic sauce and sprinkle with extra parmesan before serving.
