Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (93 degrees C). Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Arrange popcorn chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook chicken for 7 minutes, then flip and cook until lightly browned and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer chicken pieces to a baking sheet; keep warm in the preheated oven.
Step 3
Meanwhile, arrange half the waffles in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 90 seconds; flip and continue to cook until light brown in spots and crispy, about 20 seconds more. Transfer to baking sheet. Repeat with remaining waffles.
Step 4
Thread 2 waffles and 2 pieces of chicken onto each of 8 skewers. Thread berries onto remaining 12 skewers.
