Ingredients
500g chicken fillet (cut into strips or medium pieces)

1 cup breadcrumbs or panko (for extra crunch)
1/2 cup wheat flour
1 teaspoon paprika (sweet or hot, optional)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
Olive oil spray (optional, to help with crispiness)
Directions
- Season the chicken pieces with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes to absorb the seasonings.
- In a bowl, place the wheat flour.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs.
- In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs or panko.
- Coat each piece of chicken in flour, coating well.
- Then dip in the beaten egg, making sure the entire surface is covered.
- Finish by coating in breadcrumbs or panko, pressing lightly to form an even layer.
- Turn on the Airfryer at 200°C for 5 minutes.
- Place the breaded chicken pieces in the Airfryer basket, leaving space between them so that the air can circulate well.
- Lightly spray with olive oil or cooking spray (optional, to increase crispiness).
- Cook for 10 to 15 minutes at 200°C, turning the pieces halfway through to brown evenly.
- Remove from the Airfryer and serve hot, accompanied by sauces, salad or rice.
