Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • Cooking spray

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Dip each piece of chicken into the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
  4. Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the chicken bites in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded.
  5. Spray the tops of the chicken bites lightly with cooking spray.
  6. Cook in the air fryer for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
  7. Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.
