Brochetas de pollo con salsa barbacoa en freidora de aire

Ingredientes

• 12 ounces boneless skinless chicken thighs
• 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons BBQ seasoning
• Kosher salt to taste
• Ground black pepper to taste
• Olive oil spray
• 1/3 cup BBQ sauce
• Chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Preparación

1. 1

   Prepare the chicken: Cut boneless chicken thighs into bite-sized chunks, approximately 1 to 1.5-inch pieces to ensure even cooking.

2. 2

   Thread onto skewers: Thread the chicken pieces onto skewers, about 4 pieces per skewer for balanced cooking and easy handling.

3. 3

   Season the chicken: Sprinkle kosher salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and BBQ seasoning generously over all sides of the skewered chicken to coat evenly.

4. 4

   Marinate: Place the seasoned chicken skewers in the refrigerator and let them marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour, allowing flavors to develop.

5. 5

   Preheat air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (188°C) to prepare for cooking.

6. 6

   Prepare air fryer tray: Lightly spray the air fryer tray with olive oil, then arrange the chicken skewers evenly, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

7. 7

   Cook and baste: Insert the tray into the air fryer’s middle chamber and cook for 20 minutes total. After 7 minutes, remove the tray, brush the chicken with BBQ sauce and flip the skewers. Repeat brushing and turning after 5 minutes, and once more during the final 5 minutes to build a rich, caramelized glaze.

8. 8

   Finish and serve: Once the chicken is cooked through and nicely caramelized, remove the skewers and optionally garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
