Given class

public class Skills {
   [JsonProperty("skill")]
   public string Skill {get;set;}
}

and used like this

var skills=FetchSkills(); 
var dictionary = new Dictionary<string, List<Skills>>();
dictionary.Add('Employee1',skills);

return Json(dictionary, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

should produce

{
   "Employee1":[
       {"skill":"skill1"},{"skill":"skill2"},{"skill":"skill3"}
   ]
}
