Air Fryer Boneless Chicken Pieces
Crispy boneless chicken pieces made in the air fryer with simple pantry spices. Ready in under 35 minutes of active time, plus a 4 hour marinate for maximum flavor.
Ingredients
- 200 g 8 oz boneless chicken, cut into pieces
- ¼ teaspoon oregano
- ¼ teaspoon mixed herbs
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- Salt (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons oil
- ⅛ teaspoon ginger powder
Instructions
- Prep the chicken: Wash and pat dry the boneless chicken, then cut it into small, bite-sized pieces.
- Mix the marinade: In a bowl, combine chicken with oregano, mixed herbs, black pepper, salt, lemon juice, and oil. Mix well to coat evenly.
- Marinate: Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours.
- Preheat: Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (360°F) for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Arrange: Spray the basket with oil and place chicken pieces in a single layer.
- Air fry: Cook at 180°C (360°F) for 20 minutes, shaking or flipping halfway and spraying more oil.
- Serve: Once golden and crispy, remove and serve hot with your favorite dip.
Notes
- Add 1/4 tablespoon raw papaya powder for extra tender chicken.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket, or the chicken won’t crisp up properly.
- Always preheat the air fryer before adding the chicken.
- Flip the chicken halfway through for even color on both sides.
- Start checking a few minutes early since every air fryer cooks a little differently.
