- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well. In a separate shallow dish, whisk the egg. In a third shallow dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, to taste salt, to taste freshly ground black pepper
- Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Then, dip it into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the chicken thoroughly with the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to help them adhere. If you desire extra crispiness, you can lightly spray or toss the coated chicken with olive oil at this stage.1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, 1 large egg, 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs, 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the coated chicken pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd it. You may need to cook in batches.
- Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown, crispy, and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F or 74°C).1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast
- While the chicken is cooking, gently warm the flour tortillas. You can do this in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20-30 seconds until pliable.4 large flour tortillas
- Lay out a warm tortilla. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce down the center of the tortilla. Top with a portion of the crispy air fryer chicken pieces. Sprinkle generously with shredded mozzarella cheese.4 large flour tortillas, 1/4 cup marinara sauce, 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
