Known as ayam percik, this Malaysian classic is made by marinating chicken in coconut milk and spices, threading it onto skewers, and cooking it in an air fryer. The marinade is mildly spiced and slightly sweet, making it a flavor children may enjoy.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Marinate the Chicken

20 min

Mix the cubed chicken thighs with the coconut milk, ground red pepper, turmeric, ground ginger, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, and granulated sugar. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.

2

Thread onto Skewers

10 min

Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers.

3

Cook in the Air Fryer

20 min

Arrange the skewers in the air fryer basket. Cook on the medium setting, turning occasionally, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and lightly browned.

Reminder

Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 10 minutes before use; otherwise, they may burn in the air fryer. For young children, it is safer to remove the chicken from the skewers and serve bite-size pieces.

Hindistan cevizi sütü bulamadığım için evde olan yoğurtla değiştirdim, kıvam biraz daha akışkan oldu ama tavuklar yine de airfryer'da güzelce kızardı; çocuğum hiç fark etmedi.
