Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cut boneless skinless chicken thighs into 1-inch cubes and place them in a mixing bowl. Add olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper, tossing to coat well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, hot sauce, honey, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy. Set the sauce aside.
  3. Thread the chicken cubes onto skewers, ensuring space between pieces for air circulation. Arrange the skewers on a plate.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Brush the skewers with Bang Bang sauce and cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Once cooked, remove from the air fryer, brush with additional sauce, and serve hot, garnished with parsley or sesame seeds.
