Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoons 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.
- Combine the seasonings in a small bowl and stir. Sprinkle the mixture over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated.
- Spritz the air fryer basket with non-stick spray and arrange the chicken in a single layer, leaving space between pieces for crispiness. Depending on your air fryer, you may need to cook in batches.
- Air fry for 8 minutes, shaking the basket gently halfway through, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
- Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For extra crunch, ensure there is space between the chicken pieces in the air fryer.
If you’re short on time, you can cook the chicken without spacing, but it may not be as crispy.
