Ingredients
1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to create the marinade for your chicken spiedini lemon garlic recipe.
Step 2: Add the chicken cubes to the bowl and toss thoroughly to ensure every piece is coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Step 3: In a shallow dish, mix the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese together.
Step 4: Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, then roll each skewer in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly so the coating sticks.
Step 5: Place the skewers in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through, until the chicken spiedini lemon garlic recipe is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Notes
If using wooden skewers, remember to soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent charring in the air fryer.
