Preparation
  1. Start by cutting the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a bowl, combine the chicken with olive oil, lemon pepper seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Toss well to coat the chicken evenly.
Cooking
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the coated chicken bites in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  3. Cook for about 10-12 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and crispy, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Serving

Notes

Make sure to coat the chicken pieces evenly for the best flavor. Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket, as this can prevent them from cooking properly. Experiment with different seasoning blends if you want a unique twist!
