Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts
- 1½ cups flour
- 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp oil (optional)
Instructions
- Slice boneless, skinless chicken breasts into strips.
- Place the flour and half of the seasoning in one bowl and mix well. Whisk the eggs into another bowl. Finally, mix the panko breadcrumbs with the remaining spices in another bowl.
- Coat the chicken first in the flour, then in the egg and finally in the breadcrumbs.
- Place the chicken in the air fryer basket. Drizzle or spray with olive oil (optional).
- Set the temperature to 200ºC/390ºF and cook for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, turn the chicken fingers over and cook for another 3-5 minutes until crisp and golden. If you don't have an Air fryer, these chicken fingers can be baked at 220ºC until crisp and golden or fried in vegetable oil.
- Remove the chicken fingers once cooked and serve with lemon wedges and dipping sauces of your choice.
