INGREDIENTS

Chicken
- 🍗 2 (5 ounce) boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
Marinade and Spices
- ½ cup mojo criollo marinade (such as Goya®)
- 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
Tools
- 6 wooden skewers

STEPS

Combine chicken strips, marinade, and Cajun seasoning in a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate for 8 hours to overnight.

Measure skewers to fit across the air fryer basket, slightly overlapping the edge. Trim off excess length.

Preheat the air fryer to 180 degrees F (80 degrees C) for 10 minutes.

Thread chicken strips onto skewers, leaving room in between each strip, while the air fryer is preheating.

Air fry for 1 hour 15 minutes. Rearrange the skewers during the reset time if needed.

Increase temperature to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C) and air fry for an additional 15 minutes.

Remove strips to a paper towel-lined storage container. Seal and allow to rest overnight before serving.
