Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
  2. Combine panko breadcrumbs, ranch seasoning mix, and Parmesan cheese in a bowl.
  3. Dip each piece of chicken into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are well-coated.
  4. Coat the egg-dipped chicken pieces in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to ensure a good coating.
  5. Arrange the coated chicken bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
  6. Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  1. Do not overcrowd the basket; leave space for hot air to circulate. These bites can be reheated in the air fryer for a crispy finish.
