Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
In a bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, ranch seasoning mix, and Parmesan cheese.
Dip each chicken piece into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are well-coated.
Coat the egg-dipped chicken pieces in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to ensure a good coating.
Arrange the coated chicken bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Spicy Version: Add cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture for a little extra heat.

Gluten-Free: Swap the panko breadcrumbs with gluten-free breadcrumbs to make this recipe gluten-free.

Herb Infusion: Mix in fresh or dried herbs like thyme, oregano, or parsley into the breadcrumb mixture to enhance the flavor.

Baking Alternative: If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake the chicken bites at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
