SPICY LEMON CHICKEN KABOBS



Spicy Lemon Chicken Kabobs image

When I see Meyer lemons in the store, it must be spring. I like using them for these easy chicken kabobs, but regular grilled lemons still add the signature smoky tang. —Terri Crandall, Gardnerville, Nevada

AIR-FRYER ALMOND CHICKEN



Air-Fryer Almond Chicken image

My husband bought an air fryer oven about six months ago, after seeing it on television. We have used it at least twice a week and love how delicious the food has been. The chicken recipes that we have tried are especially good because of how moist it remains. We started a low-carb diet and did not want to use bread crumbs so we tried the chicken with almonds and it is a favorite now.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your kabobs.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes: This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the marinade and cook more evenly.
  • Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken kabobs immediately: They are best enjoyed hot off the grill or out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Almond chicken kabobs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight dinner. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the almonds add a nice crunch. These kabobs can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.
