Air Fryer Chicken Bites Ingredients

• Chicken: Cut boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1 inch cubes.
• Italian Dressing: Buy your favorite brand or make homemade Italian dressing for the chicken marinade.
• Adobo Seasoning: Adobo is a Latin spice blend consisting of onion and garlic powders, salt, pepper, and other spices.
• Italian Herbs: If you don’t have Italian seasoning, substitute any dried herbs, like oregano, basil, and parsley.
• Salt to season the chicken
• Sazon seasoning contains coriander, cumin, annatto, garlic powder, salt, oregano, and pepper. It is optional but delicious if you want to add it. Buy it at the supermarket or make homemade sazon.

How to Make Chicken Bites

1. Season the Chicken: Combine the chicken with the dressing, adobo seasoning, dried herbs, salt, and sazon if using.
2. How Long to Air Fry Chicken Bites: Place the chicken in an even layer. Cook at 400°F for 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway. It’s ready when the bites are browned and cooked through.

How to Meal Prep Chicken Bites

Leftover chicken bites will last up to four days refrigerated in an airtight container. Reheat them in the air fryer or microwave for quick lunches during the week.

You can also freeze cooked chicken bites:

1. Let the chicken cool, and then flash-freeze the chunks on a sheet pan.
2. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer-safe container or bag and store for up to three months.
3. To eat, either thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or heat them from frozen in the air fryer at 350°F for about five minutes, shaking the basket halfway.
