Ingredients
Scale
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
Cooking spray
Instructions
Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, about 1-inch each.
Set up Breading Stations: In a shallow dish, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In a second shallow dish, beat the eggs. In a third shallow dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Bread the Chicken: Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
Arrange in Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the breaded chicken nuggets in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd. You may need to cook them in batches.
Air Fry: Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the air fryer chicken nuggets are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
Serve: Remove the nuggets from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces.
