Method
-
Mince the chicken breast to an even texture. Plan for 4 air-fryer batches; the stated total is an estimate for that schedule. If your basket needs more batches, allow extra time and do not stack the food.
-
Mix the chicken with the salt, garlic powder, onion powder, sweet paprika, breadcrumbs and mozzarella.
-
Press the mixture between two sheets of baking paper to a 2 cm thickness. Mark out 20 sticks and chill in the freezer for 20 minutes, just until firm. Separate the sticks and remove both sheets completely before cooking.
-
Preheat the air fryer to 200°C for 5 minutes. Spray the olive oil over both sides and cook at 195°C for 12-15 minutes, turning after 8 minutes.
-
Check that the centre reaches 74°C before serving.
