Tank Cooks Air Fried Popcorner Crusted Popcorn Chicken

The recipe was sent by Wyatt Saunders 

Ingredients: 

  • Chicken breast is cut into bite-sized pieces. 
  • 1 large bag of Popcorner chips 
  • 2 Eggs - Seasonings - accent, salt, pepper, lemon pepper, garlic powder, etc.
  •  Large Ziploc bag 

Directions: 

  1. Take your Popcorners and put them in a large ziploc bag. Use a rolling pin, mallet, meat pounder, or your hands to crush the chips into a powder. This may take a while and could actually be done in a blender to get them into a fine powder. 
  2. Cut your chicken thighs or breasts into whatever shape you want. You can make strips by making long, thin slices, or more of a cube, popcorn chicken shape if you prefer. 
  3. Beat your eggs into a bowl with the preferred seasoning. 
  4. One by one, dip your chicken in the egg and then move to the Popcorner crust mixture.
  5.  Once all your chicken is coated, spray the bottom of your air fryer and place however much chicken you want to make for one serving.
  6. Cook in the air fryer at 400°F for about 8 minutes, then flip, spray again, and cook for another 6-8 minutes. Keep an eye on them; you can pull them out when they seem done. 
  7. Enjoy with your favorite sauces/sides!
