# Ingredients You’ll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
02 -
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
03 -
1 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
04 -
2 large eggs
05 -
1/4 cup whole milk
06 -
1 teaspoon garlic powder
07 -
1 teaspoon onion powder
08 -
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
09 -
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
10 -
2 tablespoons olive oil, for brushing or grilling
# How to Make It:
01 -
If using wooden skewers, submerge in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent scorching during cooking.
02 -
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully blended.
03 -
In a separate bowl, combine grated Parmesan, Italian-style breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and season generously with salt and black pepper.
04 -
Individually dip each chicken cube first in the egg mixture, ensuring an even coating, then dredge thoroughly in the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture.
05 -
Thread 5 to 6 coated chicken pieces onto each skewer, distributing evenly.
06 -
Preheat grill or oven to medium-high heat. Lightly brush skewers with olive oil and arrange them in a single layer. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes, turning once halfway, until the chicken reaches 165°F internal temperature and the coating is golden brown.
07 -
Transfer cooked skewers to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and present with preferred dipping sauces.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Avoid overcooking by monitoring the chicken’s internal temperature for optimal juiciness.
