Ingredients
  • 1 pound chicken breast
  • 1 sleeve Ritz Crackers
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • kosher salt, pepper
  • 1 egg
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • Optional: dipping sauce of choice
Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken breast into thin strips (or bite size nuggets) and set aside.

  2. Put the Ritz crackers in a food processor or blender and pulse until they are a bread crumb consistency.

    Note: If you do not have a food processor or blender, put them in a gallon size plastic bag and crush them by hand or with a cup.

  3. Put the cracker crumbs in a cup with the parmesan cheese, garlic powder, kosher salt, and pepper. Toss until evenly combined.

  4. Crack the egg in another bowl and beat with a fork.

  5. Dip each piece of chicken into the egg and then bread with the Ritz cracker breading. Place the chicken in the air fryer and spray with the nonstick spray.

  6. Set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 15 minutes and serve with a dipping sauce of choice if desired.
