This is air-fried bang bang chicken that has been Americanized. I like to serve the sauce separately so the chicken doesn’t lose its crispy crispness.

Ingredients
- 1 egg
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup tapioca starch
- 1 ½ teaspoons seasoned salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic granules
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- cooking spray
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 380 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Whisk together egg, milk, and hot sauce in a shallow bowl. Combine flour, tapioca starch, salt, garlic, and cumin in a second bowl. Dip chicken pieces first in the egg mixture, then dredge in the dry mix, shaking off excess. Place in batches in the air fryer basket, careful to not overcrowd, and lightly spray chicken with oil.
- Cook, shaking basket after 5 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes per batch.
- Mix together Greek yogurt, sweet chili sauce, and hot sauce in a small bowl. Serve sauce with the chicken.

Reviews
Worked well! I subbed panko bread crumbs for the flour and added the spices to the milk/egg mixture as well instead of hot sauce, my cook time was a little longer as well but the recipe is a solid foundation.
We loved it! It took quite a bit longer in our air fryer perhaps my chicken chunks were bigger but each batch was over 20 minutes. So delicious and we will make again?.
