Equipment Needed

  • Air Fryer or Oven
  • Wooden skewers
  • Shallow bowl
  • Baking sheet (if using the oven)

Ingredients

  • 300 grams Chicken Thighs (boneless, skinless, cut into 1-inch cubes (300g = roughly 2 chicken thighs))
  • 1 1/2 tbsps Honey
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Oil
  • 2 Garlic (clove, minced)
    Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
  • 1/2 Red Bell Pepper (medium, chopped) 
  • 1/3 cup Red Onion (cut into chunks)
  • 6 Barbecue Skewers (small)
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an oven or air fryer to 400ºF (205ºC). If using the oven, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 2

If using wooden skewers, soak in water for 10-15 minutes to prevent them from burning while cooking.

Step 3

In a shallow bowl, toss together the chicken cubes, honey, sesame oil, garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Thread the chicken, bell peppers, and onions onto the barbecue skewers. Place the skewers on the baking sheet, or into the air fryer, and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 5

Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top. Enjoy!
