Ingredients

Method

1.

1 Preheat a 5.3-litre air fryer to 180°C for 3 minutes.

2.

Cut chicken into nugget-sized pieces. Crush the cornflakes by hand in a medium bowl until coarsely crushed. Add ½ cup of the flour, the paprika, onion salt and parmesan to bowl; season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Lightly beat eggs in another medium bowl. Place remaining flour in a third bowl. Dust a few of the chicken pieces at a time in flour, shaking off excess, dip into egg, then coat in the spiced cornflake mixture. Spray nuggets generously with oil.

3.

Taking care, pull out the air-fryer pan and basket; place half the nuggets in the basket. Slide the pan and basket back into appliance. Keep temperature set at 180°C and set timer for 8 minutes; cook, turning halfway through cooking time, or until nuggets are golden and cooked through. Transfer cooked nuggets to a platter; cover to keep warm. Repeat cooking with remaining nuggets.

4.

Serve chicken nuggets with aioli swirled with sriracha, and the lemon wedges.
