Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine the cubed chicken breasts with the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper. Toss thoroughly and let marinate for 15 minutes.
  2. Thread 4-5 marinated chicken cubes onto each soaked skewer, leaving space between pieces. Alternate for color and pack tightly.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk mayonnaise, Thai sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and honey until smooth. Reserve half for serving.
  4. Brush each skewer with half of the prepared bang bang sauce to coat evenly for extra flavor.
  5. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Cook skewers for 11-12 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  6. Remove from air fryer and drizzle with reserved bang bang sauce before serving. Enjoy hot!
