Method

1. Preheat the oven with the Air Fry tray inside.

2. Cut the chicken breast into evenly sized cubes, approximately 3 cm each, to ensure even cooking.

3. Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste, gently rubbing the seasoning into the meat.

4. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a drizzle of olive oil.

5. Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are evenly coated.

6. Coat the chicken pieces in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to help the coating stick.

7. Carefully arrange the chicken nuggets on the Air Fry tray, leaving a little space between each piece.

8. Place in the oven and cook until golden and crispy, ensuring the chicken is cooked through before serving.
