Ingredients
-
¼ cup cornstarch
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
¾ teaspoon paprika
-
½ teaspoon ground mustard
-
¼ teaspoon black pepper
-
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in bite-sized pieces
-
6 cups popped popcorn
-
2 eggs, beaten
-
butter flavored cooking spray
Directions
-
Combine cornstarch, salt, paprika, ground mustard, and pepper in a large resealable plastic bag. Drop half of the chicken pieces into the bag, seal the bag, shake, and let sit 5 minutes while your air fryer is pre-heating.
-
Set the air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and preheat for 5 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, place the popped popcorn in a food processor and pulse to a crumb-like consistency. Place crumbs in a separate resealable plastic bag.
-
Dip seasoned chicken pieces first in beaten egg, then drop them into the bag of popcorn crumbs. Shake to coat.
-
Place chicken in the basket of the air fryer. Lightly spray with butter flavored cooking spray. Cook, in batches if needed, for 8 minutes. Flip, mist with spray again, and cook 6 additional minutes.
-
Using tongs, transfer chicken to a paper towel lined plate. Repeat with remaining chicken pieces. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
