How to prepare air fryer chicken strips
Let’s start preparing the air fryer chicken strips, clean the chicken breast from any fat and bones and cut it into strips. Pour the eggs into a deep plate and beat them with a fork. Pour the breadcrumbs into another flat plate and add the spices you chose to use, in my case a chopped rosemary.
Dip the chicken strips into the beaten eggs and then into the breadcrumbs, again in the beaten eggs, and again in the breadcrumbs.
Place a sheet of perforated paper on the air fryer basket, arrange the breaded chicken strips, and spray some oil with the sprayer. Close the basket and cook them at 392°F (200°C) for 12 minutes, then take out the basket, turn the strips, and spray some oil. Continue cooking at 374°F (190°C) for another 12 minutes.
Remove the chicken strips from the air fryer and serve them hot.
