Ingredients

Servings
  • 15 wooden skewers soaked in water for 30 minutes

Chicken

  • 2 pounds chicken breast cut into 1-inch cubes, boneless, skinless
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Skewers

  • 4 yellow peach quartered, then halved (32 pieces
  • 3 medium jalapeno pepper halved, seeded, cut into chunks

Peach Glaze

  • ½ cup peach preserves 160 g
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

Chicken

  1. To a large bowl, add chicken, salt, pepper, chili powder, and oil. Toss to coat.
  2. To each skewer, thread peach, chicken, jalapeno, chicken, jalapeno, chicken, and peach. (This is how I assembled each skewer; feel free to thread the skewers as desired.)
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F* (190°C).
  4. To prevent sticking, brush the skewers with olive oil. Place into the basket of your air fryer in a single layer. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to work in batches.
  5. Air fry the skewers for 11-12 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

Peach Glaze

  1. While the skewers are cooking, prepare the peach glaze. To a medium sauce pan, add the glaze ingredients. Mix until incorporated and continue to cook until warmed through.
  2. Once the skewers are done, brush them generously with the glaze. Serve warm.
