1. 1

   Add to a bowl your lean ground chicken , yellow mustard (won't taste it, helps a ton with keeping the juiciness), sea salt , black pepper , garlic powder , onion powder , chili powder , paprika , and cayenne . Lightly wet your hands before mixing it all together to make it less sticky, then form into 18 even sized chicken nuggets.

   Add your low cal bread (Sara Lee 45 Cal works well) along with paprika , chili powder , and cayenne to a small blender and blend until you get a fine bread crumb texture.

   Add the bread crumbs to a shallow bowl. Take one of your nuggets and add it to the bread crumbs, then coat well by tossing side to side in your hands to get off any of the excess. Repeat for all 18. Each one should take about 10 seconds to coat.

   Now carefully add your nuggets to your air fryer and spray with non stick cooking spray. Air fry on 400°F for ⏱️ 10 minutes . You can flip halfway through but it isn't necessary.
