- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten

2. 2. In a mixing bowl, combine your panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
3. 3. Dust the chicken pieces in flour, then dip them in the beaten eggs, and coat each piece thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture.
4. 4. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for about 5 minutes.
5. 5. Place the chicken bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
6. 6. While the chicken is cooking, whisk together the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, and honey in a small bowl.
