Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F. If your air fryer does not have a preheat option, then set the air fryer to 390 degrees F and run for 5 minutes.
  2. Cut the fat off the chicken and dice it into 1 inch pieces.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the Italian seasoning, pepper, salt, breadcrumbs and grated parmesan cheese. Melt the butter in a separate bowl.
  4. Then dip each piece of chicken in the butter and then coat in the breadcrumb mixture.
  5. Put the coated chicken in a single layer in the air fryer. You may have to cook in multiple batches depending on how many chicken nuggets you are cooking.
  6. Cook for 10-12 minutes until the nuggets are crispy and the chicken has an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
  7. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy!

Notes

  • Refrigerate the leftovers in an air tight container for up to 5-7 days.  To reheat, place them in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes to warm and crisp them back up.  Enjoy!
