Air Fryer "Grilled" Chicken Nuggets
This is probably one of the recipes I made the most in my air fryer. This has been a typical quick chicken to-go of mine for years now, but I always have done this on the stove. Now that I have an air fryer, I only cook this that way! It is just so much more convenient. I don’t have to watch the chicken on the stove and there is less of a cleanup. Plus, the little added crispiness is so much better! I never got that when I did this chicken on the pan. I also mix up the seasoning for what I am in the mood for that day. If you don’t want to use the seasoning I have listed below, then play with your own combination. Maybe you just want to add taco seasoning that day because you’re planning to make a chicken taco salad. Play and let the ideas run endlessly!
