Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch thick pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 to 3 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F.
  • While it preheats, cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch thick pieces and place the bite-sized pieces in a large bowl.
  • Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken chunks and then toss them so the oil coats the chicken evenly.
  • Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning (start with 1 to 3 teaspoons, and adjust to your taste preference), Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder over the chicken.
  • Toss again so that the chicken pieces are evenly coated with the seasonings.
  • Place the chicken cubes in a single layer in your preheated air fryer basket.
  • Cook the chicken bites for 8-10 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) and the pieces are golden brown and crispy.
  • After the chicken bites are cooked through and crispy, take them out of the air fryer and let them cool for a minute or two before serving.
