Air Fryer Boneless Buffalo Chicken Recipes

AIR FRYER BONELESS BUFFALO WINGS

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix together the almond flour, tapioca flour, chili powder, paprika, cayenne, and salt and pepper. In another small bowl, add the whisked eggs. Set up an assembly line with cubed chicken, eggs, and flour mixture.
• Bread the chicken by dipping it in the egg mixture, making sure it is fully coated. Roll in the flour mixture, fully coating and shaking off any excess. Place on a plate and repeat with remaining chicken.
• Place chicken in your air fryer basket, evenly spreading out and leaving room in between pieces so the air can easily flow through. If using, spray chicken with a light coating of avocado oil. Close drawer, set air fryer on manual at 375°F for 15 minutes, pausing halfway through to stir them up, making sure they are still evenly spread out after stirring. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you will probably have to cook the chicken in two batches to make sure they are not overcrowded.
• When the chicken is almost done, make the buffalo sauce. Add hot sauce, ghee, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, and salt to a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until warmed through and combined, about 3 minutes.
• Once chicken is done, add to a large bowl and pour buffalo sauce over chicken. Carefully mix to coat the chicken. Make sure to mix carefully as you don't want the breading to come off. Serve with ranch or blue cheese, carrots, celery, and more hot sauce!

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 400°F and spray the basket with nonstick spray.
• Set out three separate bowls. In the first bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, and salt. In the second bowl, add the beaten eggs. In the third bowl, add the panko breading.
• Dredge each chicken piece first in the flour mixture, then the eggs, and finally, the panko.
• Place chicken in a single even layer in the basket of the air fryer. (Work in batches if your air fryer isn't large enough).
• Air fry for 8 minutes, flipping the chicken halfway through. Chicken is fully cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
• Transfer the chicken to a large bowl and top with buffalo sauce. Gently toss to coat.
• OPTIONAL: Place the chicken back in the air fryer for an additional 3-4 minutes if you want them crispier.

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 380°F and lightly grease basket with cooking or avocado spray.
• Meanwhile, pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and then place a shallow bowl.
• Pour the buffalo sauce on top and use kitchen tongs to flip chicken breasts to ensure they are completely coated. Season with salt and pepper and let marinate for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Once the air fryer is heated, evenly space out the chicken breast into the basket, breast side down (the smooth side).
• Air fry for 10 minutes, then with kitchen tongs and cook for another 4 - 6 minutes. I used medium 7-ounce chicken breasts and cooked for a total of 15 minutes. They will be done once the internal temp reaches 165°F and the outside is crisp. DO NOT overcook, it will be dry.
