Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon cracked pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees for 5 minutes.
- Chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil.
- Mix all the seasonings in a small bowl and stir to combine. Sprinkle over the chicken and mix well, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated.
- Spray the air fryer basket with non-stick spray and arrange the chicken in an even layer, ensuring some space between each piece for best crispiness. If you're short on time, you can place them closer together but this may affect texture.
- Air fry for 8 minutes, shaking gently halfway through, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
- Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For extra crispy bites, ensure there is space between the chicken pieces in the air fryer.
Use non-stick spray to avoid sticking and for easy cleanup.
Feel free to adjust seasoning to your preference for more flavor.
