Main Ingredients
  • 16 wooden skewers wooden skewers soaked in water for 30 minutes
  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Bang Bang Sauce
  • 1.25 cups mayonnaise
  • 0.67 cup Thai sweet chili sauce
  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha or more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a large bowl, combine the cubed chicken breasts, olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper. Toss to evenly coat the chicken.
  2. Working one skewer at a time, thread 4-5 chicken cubes onto each.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Thai sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and honey. Mix well. This will make about 1.75 cups of bang bang sauce.
  4. Pour half of the sauce into a separate bowl and set aside to use after the chicken has been cooked. Use the rest of the sauce to brush evenly over the chicken.
  5. Add the skewers to the basket of your air fryer in a single layer. (Depending on the size of the air fryer, you may have to work in batches.)
  6. Air fry at 400°F for 11-12 minutes, flipping halfway. Chicken is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  7. Transfer the skewers to a plate and drizzle or brush with the reserved bang bang sauce. Serve immediately.
