Everything But The Bagel Chicken Nuggets

This is my new favorite way to use everything but the bagel seasoning! It just takes chicken nuggets to a whole new level! Not only are these nuggets super crunchy, but they're healthy too because I made them in the air fryer! They're great with honey mustard, or your dipping sauce of choice, but they're also yummy on salads, in wraps, and although I haven't tried them in a sandwich, I bet its good.

Serves: 6

Ingredients

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast cut into approx. 1" cubes
1 large egg plus one large egg white beaten
1 1/4 cup 4C Panko breadcrumbs seasoned with pecorino romano cheese
- You can substitute this with gluten free panko bread crumbs and add a few tablespoons of pecorino romano cheese.
4 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

In a large, shallow bowl mix the panko bread crumbs with the everything bagel seasoning.
Dip the chicken in the beaten eggs with one hand and let the excess egg drip off.
Place the chicken into the breadcrumb mixture and using your other hand, coat the chicken with the breadcrumbs.
Repeat the process with the rest of your chicken and line them up on a lightly greased air fryer basket. Leave a little bit of space between the chicken. Depending on of the size of your air fryer, you will need to work in batches, but its worth it to have extra crispy chicken nuggets!
Spray the top of the chicken with avocado oil spray and put in the air fryer at 350 degrees.
Cook for 6 minutes, flip the chicken over, and cook for another 6 minutes.
