Tips
Adjust the seasoning depending on your preference. You can customize the seasoning mix to your liking. Try adding cumin, chilli powder, or smoked paprika for a different flavour.
Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket. Allow some space between them to cook evenly.
Check that the chicken is cooked through before consuming it, and try not to overcook it.
Cut the chicken into uniform sizes to ensure that the chicken cooks evenly.
Serve with a favourite dipping sauce. Try sweet chilli mayo, ranch dressing, honey mustard, or BBQ sauce.
