Creating Air Fryer Chicken Bites is a cinch if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
2. Season the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken pieces with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix until the chicken is evenly coated.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
4. Arrange the Chicken: Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the seasoned chicken bites in a single layer in the basket. Make sure they are not overcrowded; you may need to do this in batches.
5. Cook the Chicken: Cook the chicken bites in the air fryer for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through. They should be golden brown and cooked through.
6. Check for Doneness: Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
7. Serve: Once cooked, remove the chicken bites from the air fryer and let them rest for a minute before serving.
