Ingredients Equipment Method Nutrition Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1.5” pieces (about 2 breasts)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil, vegetable oil, etc.
  • ¾ teaspoon paprika
  • ¾ teaspoon granulated garlic powder
  • ¾ teaspoon granulated onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon flaky salt or kosher salt , more to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Equipment

  • air fryer

Method
 

  1. Add the oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, flaky salt, and black pepper to a medium-sized bowl. Stir together until well combined.
  2. Add the chicken to the bowl and toss it to coat it in the seasoned oil. Set aside as you preheat the air fryer.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 400ºF (204ºC) for 3 minutes.
  4. Arrange half of the chicken pieces in the air fryer basket, leaving 1 inch of space between each piece.
  5. Place the basket into the air fryer and cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through cooking. The chicken bites are done when they reach a minimum internal temperature of 165ºF (74ºC) at the thickest portion.
  6. Remove the cooked pieces to a plate and repeat with the remaining seasoned chicken bites.
  7. Serve as-is, or with your favorite dipping sauce.
