Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • ½ cup  all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Cooking spray

Method
 

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In three separate bowls, place the flour in one, the beaten eggs in another, and combine the bread crumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in the third.
  3. Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour, then dip them in the beaten eggs, and finally coat them in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  4. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray, then place the coated chicken bites in a single layer in the basket, making sure they are not touching.
  5. Lightly spray the tops of the chicken bites with cooking spray.
  6. Air fry the chicken bites for 10-12 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve the air fryer chicken bites with your favourite dipping sauce and enjoy!
