These easy naked Air Fryer Chicken Bites with no breading use boneless chicken breast chunks seasoned with sumac, a tangy spice that adds depth of flavour.
Sumac chicken has its roots in Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly associated with Palestinian dishes. The spice sumac is tart and has lemony flavour.
These chicken bites are a breeze to make in the air fryer. Just marinate the chicken pieces and if you like, rest for a few minutes or simply air fry in batches for 20 minutes, flipping half way. I set my air fryer to 205c.
As an optional step, I seared the fried chicken for a few minutes till nice golden.
These chicken bites are anything but bland! This dish is not only quick to prepare but also packed with flavour.
