Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 (about 1 pound) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat your air fryer to 400˚F.
- Prepare the chicken. Meanwhile, cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Season the chicken. Add the chicken pieces to a large bowl and toss them with olive oil, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper.
- Air-fry. Add the chicken bites to the air fryer basket in a single layer. (You will have to cook them in batches.) Cook the chicken for 10 minutes, shaking it well and tossing it halfway through the cooking time.
- Serve. Remove the chicken bites from the air fryer and serve them with honey mustard or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Cooking time may depend on the size of your chicken bites. You are looking for an internal temperature of 165°F.
- You can also use skinless chicken thighs if you are looking for juicier chicken bites.
- The chicken bites can be served with BBQ sauce, honey mustard, mayonnaise, or ranch dressing.
- If you want, you can omit the red pepper flakes for chicken bites with less heat.
