Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1 lb boneless chicken breast
1-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil Adjust based on personal preference.
1-2 tablespoons taco seasoning Use Siete or adjust based on your taste.
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt Use if needed.

Instructions

Preparation

Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.
Cut the chicken into 1.5-inch chunks.
Add the cubed chicken to a medium bowl.
Toss the chicken with the olive oil and taco seasoning to fully coat.

Cooking

Place the seasoned chicken bites in a single layer in the preheated air fryer.
Cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

Serving

Serve the chicken bites alone or with dipping sauces like salsa, guacamole, or ranch.

Notes

To make these bites even better, consider marinating the chicken in the olive oil and taco seasoning for 30 minutes before cooking. Cut chicken chunks evenly for uniform cooking and do not overcrowd the air fryer basket for a crispy texture. For spice enthusiasts, add cayenne pepper or use spicy taco seasoning.
