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 Fahrenheit for 5 minutes.
- Chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil.
- In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, brown sugar, salt, and cracked pepper. Sprinkle this mixture over the chicken and mix well to coat.
- Spritz the air fryer basket with non-stick spray and arrange the coated chicken in an even layer. Make sure to leave space between pieces for optimal crispiness, though you can cook in batches.
- Air fry for 8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For extra crispiness, work in small batches to prevent overcrowding the air fryer.
Feel free to adjust the seasonings based on your taste preferences.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce for added flavor.
