Equipment

  • Air fryer

Ingredients
  

The Spices

  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¾ teaspoon salt I use Morton table salt for this because it’s fine and better for coating
  • 1 ½ teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

The Chicken

  • 2 teaspoons avocado oil
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts If you have closer to 1.5 pounds in your package, increase the amount of spices above by 1.5x

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Cut each chicken breast into thin, flat pieces. Pat the chicken breasts dry if they have a lot of moisture.
  • Toss the spices together, sprinkle mixture over the chicken pieces in a bowl, add the oil, and toss to coat.
  • Preheat the air fryer. Place chicken on the air fryer basket in an even layer and air fry at 415 degrees for 10 minutes.
  • Let rest for a moment, slice, and enjoy!

Notes

Marinating is recommended for best results, but not necessary. For a dipping sauce, mix ½ cup mayo with 2 tablespoons gochujang sauce, garlic, soy sauce, and a dash of rice vinegar.
