Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the chicken cubes to the bowl and stir to ensure each piece is well-coated in the marinade. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Preheat your air fryer to 370 degrees F (185 degrees C). (10 minutes)

04

Step

Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the chicken mixture. Toss until the chicken is evenly coated and all the liquid is absorbed. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Air fry for 8 minutes, then use tongs to flip the chicken bites. (8 minutes)

07

Step

Spray the tops of the chicken with non-stick cooking spray and continue to cook for another 8 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. (8 minutes)

08

Step

Sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley evenly over the chicken bites. (1 minute)

09

Step

Cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the Parmesan cheese is melted and bubbly. (2 minutes)

10

Step

Serve immediately and enjoy!

For extra crispy chicken, ensure the pieces are not overcrowded in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary.
Feel free to experiment with different seasonings. Smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, or onion powder would also be delicious.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara, ranch, or honey mustard.
To ensure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
