Lemon Butter Chicken Skewers

Comments are Disabled

Everything tastes better on a stick, right? Yes, I agree! These lemon butter chicken skewers are no exception. These are the perfect snack or dinner idea to pair with white rice. The best part about these skewers are that you don’t need to make a big ole mess by turning on a grill or pan, just pop them babies in the air fryer. I have discovered a new love and appreciation for my air fryer and these skewers are a big reason why. The combination of lemon butter flavored anything is top tier and irresistible, and it will get your mouth watering before you even take the first bite.
