½ tsp salt
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
¼ tsp black pepper
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
Chef's tip
Regular bread crumbs are finer and less crunchy than panko. Use the same amount; coatings and toppings will be a bit denser and less crisp.
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp dried oregano
olive oil spray

Instructions

1
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (205°C) for 3 minutes.
2
Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Set up a three-stage dredging station: flour in one shallow dish, eggs beaten in a second shallow dish, and panko combined with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and dried oregano in a third shallow dish.
