Instructions
Preheat air fryer to 380F. In a medium bowl, season the chicken cubes with salt, pepper, and paprika. Set aside. Add the peanuts to a food processor and pulse until the size of the panko breadcrumbs. Add the peanuts, panko, and shredded coconut to a medium bowl and mix. Set aside. Set up a dredging station with the beaten eggs, the coating mixture, and seasoned chicken. Start off by dipping the chicken cubes into the egg mixture, and then into the crispy peanut coating mix. Toss to ensure all sides of the chicken bites are well coated. Continue with the rest of the chicken and coating. Spray the basket of the air fryer with olive oil spray, and place the coated chicken bites in a single layer. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil cooking spray. Air fry at 380F for 14-16 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy. While the chicken is in the air fryer, make the thai coconut pineapple sauce. Add all of the ingredients, to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened. Remove from heat. Once the chicken bites are done in the air fryer, remove and drizzle the sauce over them, or use as a dip. Best paired with rice. Enjoy!View original recipe
