Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken breast cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 bell peppers red or yellow or orange
- 2 small zucchini
- ½ red onion large
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1.5 teaspoon salt kosher or Himalayan pink salt
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried basil leaves
Instructions
- Combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, basil, thyme, onion powder, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl to form the marinade.
- Toss the chicken cubes in the marinade until evenly coated.
- Cut zucchini into ½ inch coins and bell peppers and onion into 1-inch pieces ensuring uniform size for even cooking.
- Add the veggies to the chicken in the bowl and stir to coat everything with the marinade.
- Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours to marinate well.
- Thread chicken and veggies onto skewers, placing about 3-4 chicken pieces per stick and starting and ending with bell pepper pieces.
- Preheat the air fryer to 370 degrees Fahrenheit for a few minutes.
- Arrange 4-5 skewers in a single layer in the air fryer basket without crowding for even browning.
- Air fry the kabobs for 12-15 minutes, turning them once after 7 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Repeat the air frying process for the remaining skewers and serve hot.
Notes
- Ensure your bamboo or metal skewers fit the air fryer basket
- 8-inch bamboo sticks work well
- The number of kabobs depends on skewer length
- 8-inch sticks yield about 9 kabobs
- Feel free to substitute or add mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, or baby potatoes to the veggies
