Chicken breast is leaner, while drumsticks are often less expensive.

Soak six wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.

In the meantime, prepare the marinade with 2 tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tbsp of vinegar, 1 tbsp of oil, 1 tsp of garlic paste, 1 tsp of ginger paste, 1 tbsp of gochujang, and 1 tbsp of honey.

Mix the marinade ingredients together.

Add two cubed chicken breasts to the marinade and allow to marinate for about an hour, or overnight if possible.

Once ready to cook, thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers and lay them on a tray.

Reserve the marinade for later use.

Air fry the chicken at 180° C for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking.

Pour the reserved marinade into a pan and cook on low heat until thickened, which should take a couple of minutes.

Brush the thickened marinade onto the cooked chicken.

Garnish the chicken with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.

Serve with boiled rice and stir-fried vegetables.
