Instructions
0 Preheat the air fryer to 400°. If using a larger air fryer, preheat to 425°. 1 You will need 3 seperate bowls:- first bowl will be the chicken + the cornstarch, toss to coat- second will be the eggs + salt, beat the eggs for about 30 seconds- third bowl will be all of the ingredients for the bread crumb mixture***See my baggie hack above! 2 After the chicken is completely coated in the cornstarch, dip in the egg mixture, and then into the bread crumbs. 3 Lay the chicken pieces flat onto the air fryer tray or baket, spray both sides generously with olive oil spray and place into the air fryer for about 10-12 minutes or until the chicken reaches and internal temperature of 165°. You might need to do this in batches depending on the size of your air fryer. 4 While the chicken is cooking add all of the ingredients for the sauce into a small pot, making sure there are no clumps from the cornstarch. Cook on medium high heat, stirring occasionally until the sauce begins to thicken, lower the temp to low and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes. 5 Once the chicken is done add to a bowl and toss with the sauce to coat the chicken. 6 Serve with steamed rice and veggies!View original recipe
