Equipment
Ingredients
- 1.25 pounds Chicken Breasts cut into cubes or bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 teaspoon Natural Ancient Sea Salt optional
- 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
Buffalo Sauce
- 1/3 cup Franks Red Hot Wing Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Butter unsalted
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees for 5 minutes.
- Mix the spices together in a small bowl. This will help you season the chicken bites evenly.
- Toss the chicken in the spices and oil: Add the chicken breasts to a large mixing bowl with the mixed spices and oil. Toss to coat the chicken evenly.
- Place the seasoned chicken bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Air fry at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
- Mix the buffalo sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
- Add the cooked chicken to a bowl. Pour on the buffalo sauce.
- Toss the cooked chicken in sauce. Allow it to rest for 5 minutes and serve. Leftover sauce can be served with the chicken in a dipping cup
Notes
- Avoid overcrowding the basket: cook in batches if needed for even browning.
- Toss with sauce while the chicken is hot so it clings evenly.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
