Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1 1/2 Tbsps garlic powder
  • 1 Tbsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 Tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • Optional dipping sauce: 3/4 cup Ranch dressing, 1/4 cup shredded parmesan, fresh cracked pepper mixed together
Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken breasts into smaller chicken strips.

  2. In a bowl add the panko bread crumbs, shredded parmesan cheese, garlic powder, kosher salt, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Stir until evenly mixed.

  3. Beat the two eggs in a separate bowl.

  4. Dip each chicken strip into the egg mixture and into the panko mixture. Press the panko and cheese mixture into the chicken so it sticks. Place the chicken into the air fryer basket. Repeat with remaining chicken strips.

    Note: Depending on the size of your air fryer you may need to make this in two smaller batches.

  5. Set the air fryer for 14 minutes at 390 degrees.

  6. Serve with the optional dipping sauce if desired.
