Ingredients

  • 1 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast - thinly sliced
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 dash black pepper
  • 1 cup gluten-free bread crumbs
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • ¾ cup buffalo sauce of choice plus extra for topping - (I used Sweet Baby Rays)

Instructions

  • Pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Season the chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Arrange two bowls, one with the breadcrumbs and the other with the buffalo sauce.
  • First, dip the chicken into the bowl of the buffalo sauce, and then place it into the bowl of the breadcrumbs. Flip the chicken in the breadcrumbs until it is evenly coated. Continue with the remaining chicken breasts.
  • Spray the air-fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray. Heat the air-fryer to 380 F and cook for 10 minutes. Pull out the fryer basket and flip the chicken to the other side. Continue cooking for an additional 8 minutes.
  • Remove from the air-fryer and serve immediately.
