About This Recipe

Tender pieces of chicken breast air fried with a copycat Chick-Fil-A seasoning blend.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Chicken Breast (diced)
  • 1/2 C 120mL Pickle Juice
  • 1/4 C 60mL Skim Milk
  • 2 tsp Powdered Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Smoked Paprika

Instructions

  1. Mix the pickle juice and milk together before adding the diced chicken. Cover and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes (or overnight).
  2. Drain the chicken before adding a mixture of the remaining ingredients. Once evenly coated, transfer to an air fryer basket.
  3. Air fry for 10-12 minutes at 400ºF until the chicken reaches an internal temp of 165ºF. If you'd like your nuggets a bit crispier, you can use the broil function for a few minutes to add crisp them up without drying out the chicken.
