Ingredients

  • 4 Chicken thighs Boneless and skinless
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tsp Ginger paste
  • 1/2 cup Teriyaki sauce
  • Sesame seeds for topping
  • Wooden skewers soaked in water for at least 30 minutes

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine ginger paste, teriyaki sauce, minced garlic.
  • Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized cubes.
    Place the chicken cubes in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.
    Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well-coated.
    (optional) Seal the bag or cover the dish, then refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the flavors infuse.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  • Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece.
  • Place the skewers in the preheated air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching.
    Air fry for 17-20 minutes, turning the skewers halfway through the cooking time for even browning.
  • Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken skewers from the air fryer.
    Sprinkle sesame seeds over the skewers for garnish.
  • If you desire an extra glossy finish, you can brush the chicken with additional teriyaki sauce in the last few minutes of cooking.
  • Arrange the teriyaki chicken skewers on a serving platter.
    Serve with steamed rice, quinoa, or your favorite side dishes. Enjoy!
