Tips for Perfect Air Fryer Skewers

• Uniform Pieces: Cut chicken and vegetables into uniform sizes for even cooking.
• Don’t Overcrowd: Ensure skewers are not touching each other to allow air to circulate and cook the food evenly.
• Adjust Cooking Time: Depending on your air fryer model, you may need to adjust the cooking time slightly. Check the chicken for doneness before serving.
