Make your chicken mince into small meatball shapes. Or use raw chicken burgers and cut into quarters and then make into meatball shapes.
Crack eggs into a bowl and mix with a fork. Place flour in a bowl and season well with chicken seasoning, salt, and pepper. Place breadcrumbs into a bowl and mix with your KFC rub.
Load chicken balls into the flour mixture, then into the egg, and then into the breadcrumbs bowl. Make sure each piece of chicken is well coated from each bowl.
Place the popcorn chicken into the air fryer basket on a single layer.
Cook for 8 minutes at 180c/360f. Then turn and cook for a further 4 minutes at the same temperature.
Serve with your favourite dipping sauce.

Notes
Improvising. Here in Portugal, we cannot get chicken mince outside of Christmas. What I did instead was make Lidl chicken burgers into quarters and used these instead. You can do the same and it’s a great way to use up chicken burgers.Dipping. For my dipping sauce I added mayonnaise to a bowl with lemon juice and paprika and it was delicious.Thanks for reading our air fryer KFC popcorn chicken recipe on Recipe This.
