- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Whisk in the hoisin, apple juice, soy sauce, bourbon and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer over low heat and cook, stirring often, for 5 to 7 minutes until slightly thickened. Take off the heat and set aside.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Thread the marinated chicken onto 8-inch wooden skewers, about 6 pieces per skewer.
- Lay the skewers in a single layer in the air fryer basket, spray with cooking spray, and cook for 8 minutes.
- Set aside some of the sauce for serving. Brush the skewers generously with the rest, then cook 6 to 8 more minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Brush with the reserved sauce and garnish with scallions.
