Description

Diese würzigen Hähnchenstreifen sind ein echter Knaller für jede Party oder als herzhafter Snack zwischendurch! Ich mache sie total gerne, weil sie so einfach zuzubereiten sind und man sie super vorbereiten kann. Das Hähnchen wird in einer Marinade aus Gewürzen eingelegt, was ihm einen tollen Geschmack verleiht. Die Zubereitung dauert zwar etwas, aber das Ergebnis ist es wert. Perfekt für alle, die es gerne etwas schärfer mögen und eine proteinreiche Alternative suchen. Probiert es unbedingt mal aus!

Ingredients (4 ingredients)

10 ounce boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
0.5 cup marinade
2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
6 piece wooden skewers

Preparation (9 steps)

Chicken Preparation

Cut 2 (5 ounce) boneless chicken breasts into strips. Place the chicken strips in a resealable plastic bag.

Marinade Preparation

Add ½ cup marinade and 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning to the bag with the chicken strips. Seal the bag and massage to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.

Marinating the Chicken

Refrigerate the sealed bag with the chicken and marinade for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the chicken.

Preparing the Skewers

Measure the wooden skewers to fit across the air fryer basket, slightly overlapping the edge. Trim off any excess length to ensure they fit properly.

Preheating the Air Fryer

Preheat the air fryer to 80°C for 10 minutes. While the air fryer is preheating, proceed to the next step.

Threading the Chicken

Thread the marinated chicken strips onto the prepared skewers, leaving a small space between each strip to allow for even cooking. Ensure the chicken is securely attached to the skewers.

Air Frying the Chicken

Air fry the chicken skewers at 80°C for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Since most air fryers have a maximum setting of 30 minutes, you will need to reset the timer multiple times. During the reset time, rearrange the skewers to ensure even cooking.

Increasing the Temperature

Increase the air fryer temperature to 95°C and continue to air fry for an additional 15 minutes to achieve a crispier texture.

Resting the Chicken

Remove the chicken strips from the skewers and place them on a paper towel-lined storage container. Seal the container and allow the chicken to rest overnight before serving to allow the flavors to fully develop and the texture to improve.
