Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Preheat the air fryer to 190C.

  2. 2

    Add the flour to a plate and season with salt and pepper. Place the egg and milk mixture in a small bowl and place the breadcrumbs in a larger bowl.

  3. 3

    Toss the chicken pieces first in the flour, then the egg, then finally the breadcrumbs.

  4. 4

    Add the coated chicken to the air fryer in batches, spreading out into a single layer and adding a few sprays of cooking oil. Air fry for 8-10 minutes, until crispy and cooked through.

  5. 5

    While the chicken is cooking, prepare the sauce. Place all the ingredients in a saucepan and bring to the boil, reduce to a simmer and stir constantly for 2-3 minutes, until the cornflour has thickened the sauce.

  6. 6

    Toss the crispy chicken bites in the sweet and sour sauce and top with spring onions to serve.
