Ingredients
Scale
1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cup of breadcrumbs (preferably whole wheat for added fiber)
1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
1 teaspoon of dried oregano
1 teaspoon of onion powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 large eggs
1 cup of marinara sauce (for dipping)
Cooking spray or olive oil spray
Instructions
Start by washing and patting your chicken dry. This helps the coating stick better. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the dry ingredients are thoroughly blended. This is where the flavor magic begins!
In another bowl, crack two large eggs and beat them until yolks and whites are fully combined. Set up your breading station with the chicken pieces, egg wash, and breadcrumb mixture in a row for efficiency.
Dip each piece of chicken into the egg wash, letting the excess drip off. Then, roll it in the breadcrumb mixture, coating evenly. Ensure every piece is duly covered for that crunchy texture.
Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C). Once heated, lightly spray the basket with cooking spray.
Arrange the chicken bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching; this allows for even air circulation. Spray the tops lightly with oil for added crispiness. Air fry for 10 minutes, then flip the bites and cook for an additional 5-8 minutes or until they are golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
