These Air Fryer Gochujang Chicken Skewers are sweet, savory, and slightly spicy with a crispy panko-coconut coating that delivers the perfect crunch while keeping the chicken incredibly juicy. Finished with a creamy bang bang sauce for drizzling or dipping, every bite is packed with bold flavor and irresistible texture.
Tender chunks of chicken are marinated in a simple gochujang glaze made with maple syrup, garlic, and sesame oil before being coated in a crunchy panko-coconut breading and air fried until golden brown. Paired with a creamy bang bang dipping sauce, these skewers are packed with bold flavor while still being easy enough for a weeknight dinner.
Serve them over steamed rice, tucked into lettuce wraps, or alongside a crisp cucumber salad for a meal that’s guaranteed to disappear fast.
In a large bowl, whisk together the gochujang, maple syrup, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar (or lime juice), grated garlic, and fresh ginger until smooth.
Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and toss to coat evenly in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, though 4–6 hours will give you the best flavor.
Add the panko, coconut flakes and cornstarch to a shallow bowl with a good pinch of salt and stir to combine.
Using tongs, transfer the marinated chicken to a paper towel-lined plate. Gently blot the tops of the chicken pieces with another paper towel to remove any excess marinade. The chicken should still feel slightly tacky—this helps the coating stick—but it shouldn’t be dripping wet.
Toss the chicken pieces in the panko-coconut mixture until evenly coated, then thread them onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece so they cook evenly.
Spray both sides of the skewers with avocado oil, then arrange them in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them. Air fry at 400°F for 5 minutes. Flip the skewers, spray both sides again with avocado oil, and air fry for another 5 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Gochujang is a Korean fermented chili paste with a rich umami flavor. It’s mildly spicy, slightly sweet, and adds incredible depth to marinades, sauces, and glazes.
Not overly. The maple syrup balances the heat, making these flavorful with just a gentle kick. If you like things hotter, add extra gochujang or a drizzle of sriracha.
Absolutely! Chicken thighs stay extra juicy and are a great option for this recipe.
Yes! Bake at 425°F for 18–22 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Broil for the last minute or two for extra color.
Yes. Marinate the chicken up to 24 hours in advance. You can also mix the bang bang sauce several days ahead and store it in the refrigerator.

The cabbage cooks down into something silky and flavorful, soaking up all that umami goodness. It’s the kind of dinner that feels a little elevated—but comes together with minimal effort.
For serving:
