Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Preheat your air fryer to 300°F (193°C). (Approximately 2 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Arrange the chicken nuggets in a single layer within the air fryer basket. Air fry until they achieve a desirable hot and crispy texture, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking process to ensure even browning. You may need to work in batches to avoid overcrowding. (Approximately 10 minutes)

03

Step
12 mins

Alternatively, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the chicken nuggets in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until they turn a beautiful golden brown. (Approximately 12 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the Bang Bang sauce. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated. (Approximately 3 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Once the chicken nuggets are cooked, immediately transfer them to the bowl with the Bang Bang sauce. Toss gently but thoroughly to ensure each nugget is generously coated in the luscious sauce. (Approximately 2 minutes)

06

Step

Transfer the saucy nuggets to a serving plate. Garnish generously with freshly sliced green onions to add a burst of freshness and visual appeal. Serve immediately and enjoy the explosion of flavors!

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a dash of sesame oil or a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds to the sauce.
Adjust the amount of sriracha to customize the spice level to your liking. For a milder flavor, reduce the amount or omit it altogether. For a spicier kick, add more!
If you don't have green onions, chopped cilantro or parsley can be used as a substitute.
These Bang Bang Chicken Bites are best served immediately while the nuggets are still crispy. If you need to prepare them in advance, toss the chicken in the sauce just before serving to prevent them from becoming soggy.
