- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 3 Tablespoons of soy sauce for marinating
- 1 Teaspoon chopped or Dried parsley
- Olive oil or spray oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and spray the basket with a little oil. (Use a kitchen brush if you don't have spray oil).
- Prepare the chicken breasts by cutting the chicken into 2-inch pieces. Marinate for 15 minutes with the soy sauce and black pepper in a shallow bowl.
- In a bowl put the breadcrumbs, a pinch of salt, black pepper and some chopped parsley, and mix well.
- Break the eggs into another bowl and beat them until combined.
- Then dip each chicken piece into the beaten egg, coating each piece of chicken completely.
- Roll the nuggets in the breadcrumb mixture, coating each side.
- Place the chicken bites in the basket of the air fryer, being careful not to overcrowd the basket.
- You may need to do this several times to make sure the chicken nuggets do not touch each other.
- Season the chicken bites with olive oil and cook them for 5 minutes at 400°F (200°C) in the air fryer.
- Give a good shake and cook for another 5 minutes.Serve with your favorite sauce.
- OVEN: Place a rack on a baking sheet and lay the chicken bites on the grill. Cook them for 14 to 16 minutes at 400°F, turning them halfway through cooking.
Notes
- Make sure your chicken bites are the same size: The key to getting perfectly cooked chicken nuggets in the air fryer is to make sure they are all cut about the same size. That way they will all cook at the same time and assures you best results.
- For super crispy cooking of these chicken bites make sure not to overcrowding the fryer basket. This will prevent air from circulating
- In this recipe we used a simple breading try adding spices such as curry, garlic powder or onion powder. /our bites will surprise us!
