Ingredients
  

Chicken Marinade

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce

  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

Instructions

Notes

Pro Tips: Preheat your air fryer for best results. Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F. Ingredient Substitutions: Chicken thighs can be used instead of breasts. Tamari can replace soy sauce for a gluten-free option. How to Serve: Serve over rice or with a side salad. Storage & Freshness: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Make-Ahead Tips: Chicken can be marinated up to 24 hours in advance.
