Prepare the Chicken

1. Cut Chicken: Start by cutting the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.

Set Up Breading Station

1. Prepare Breading: In three separate bowls, place flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Bread the Nuggets

1. Dredge Chicken: Dip each piece of chicken first into the flour, coating evenly.
2. Dip in Eggs: Next, dip the floured chicken into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off.
3. Coat with Breadcrumbs: Finally, roll the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring each piece is well-coated.

Air Fry the Nuggets

1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
2. Arrange Nuggets: Place the breaded chicken nuggets in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch.
3. Spray with Oil: Lightly spray the nuggets with cooking spray or olive oil.
4. Cook: Air fry the nuggets for 10 minutes, then flip them over and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

Serve

1. Plate the Nuggets: Remove the nuggets from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving platter.
2. Enjoy: Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces such as ranch, barbecue, or honey mustard.
