Prepare chicken thighs by cutting out the bone and keeping the skin on for flavor.

Cut chicken into square pieces.

Grate garlic and ginger directly into the marinating bowl without peeling.

Add ground cumin, turmeric, curry powder, ground coriander, soy sauce, and honey to the chicken for marinating.

Set the marinated chicken aside to marinate for a bit.

Make the peanut butter sauce by blending peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, garlic, and chili powder together.

Add hot water to the peanut butter sauce to thin it out for easier dipping.

Soak bamboo skewers in water for about 5 minutes to keep the chicken moist while cooking.

Skewer the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked bamboo skewers, ensuring they are evenly spaced.

Place the chicken skewers in an air fryer, making sure not to overcrowd them, and cook at 180°C for 12 to 15 minutes.

Prepare the serving dish by pouring the peanut sauce into a bowl and garnishing with fresh coriander, chili, and lime wedges.
