Butter Chicken Skewers

Juicy, tender chicken marinated in a creamy, spiced yogurt blend and air-fried to perfection.

📝 Ingredients

• 1 lb chicken tenders (or thighs cut into 1.5-inch pieces)
• 2 tbsp Greek yogurt
• 2 tbsp heavy cream
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tsp garlic paste
• 1 tsp ginger paste
• 1/2 tsp minced green chili
• 1 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
• 1 Kashmiri red chili powder
• 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
• 2 tsp kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves) (crushed)
• 1/2 tsp garam masala
• 2 tbsp butter (melted)
• 2 tbsp cilantro (finely chopped)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1In a large bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients. Add chicken pieces and toss until well-coated. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes or refrigerate overnight if meal prepping.
2. 2Thread the chicken onto four 8-inch metal or soaked wooden skewers. Leave a tiny bit of space between pieces to ensure the air circulates for even browning.
3. 3Preheat the air fryer to 380°F. Arrange the skewers in a single layer and cook for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through if you’d like.
4. 4Immediately brush the hot skewers with the melted butter and cilantro mixture.
