Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken, egg, and spices.
- In a shallow bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, plain breadcrumbs, and parmesan cheese.
- Working with one chicken piece at a time, dredge into the panko mixture, making sure to coat evenly by pressing on all sides of the chicken.
- Transfer chicken pieces to the air fryer basket in a single layer (you may have to do this in multiple batches) and generously spray with cooking spray.
- Cook on 400ºF for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through. Transfer chicken nuggets and repeat the process with the remaining batch.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce such as ketchup, honey mustard, BBQ sauce, spicy mayo or yum yum sauce.

- Storing leftovers: Place in an airtight container in the fridge for up to about 3 days.
- Freeze: To freeze, let the nuggets cool completely, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. Label it with the date. They will keep in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- Reheat: For best results, reheat from frozen in a preheated air fryer. Cook them for 10-12 minutes at 400ºF, flipping halfway through.
