Ingredients

Servings
  • wooden skewers soaked in water for 30 minutes
  • 2 pounds chicken breast cut into 1-inch cubes, boneless, skinless
  • ½ cup soy sauce 116 g
  • ½ cup brown sugar 100 g
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons green onion finely diced for garnish

Instructions

  1. Add the cubed chicken to a large resealable plastic bag.
  2. In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and garlic. Mix together until the sugar is dissolved.
  3. Pour the marinade into the bag, over the chicken.
  4. Zip the bag shut, and spread the marinade around until the chicken is fully coated. Transfer the bag to the refrigerator to marinade for 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
  5. After marinating, thread the chicken cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, about 4-5 pieces per skewer. Reserve the marinade.
  6. Place the skewers into the basket of your air fryer in a single layer. (Depending on the size of the air fryer, you may have to work in batches.) Air fry* at 400°F for 11-12 minutes, flipping halfway. Chicken is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  7. Boil the reserved marinade for 5-10 minutes.
  8. Brush the marinade over the cooked chicken skewers. Garnish with green onion and serve immediately.
