This is a very good recipe. I love the yogurt and hot sauce mix. I used one whole egg instead of substitute. I also added extra hot sauce. The amounts are quite precise as there was no leftover batter nor bread crumbs. It doesn't specify the temperature. I used a Philips airfryer on 190°C. Using thin chicken, the strips only needed eight minutes total. What a delicious meal. Thank you. Read More

I used 1 egg instead of the substitute, Crystal hot sauce and regular bread crumbs because the seasoning mixes better than with panko. No other changes. Since the recipe didn't list a temperature, I used the chicken setting on my AF (370) for 15 minutes. I had 2 racks of chicken pieces and didn't need to turn them. Awesome! It's kinda messy to make but well worth it. Read More

I made this dish using Italian breadcrumbs instead of Panko, one large egg instead of the substitute and I omitted the garlic pepper since I had none. Read More

I made chicken breast strips. Used one large chicken breast; marinated it in honey barbecue ranch dressing for 4 hrs.; rolled it in Italian bread crumbs; and baked it at 400• for 8 min on each side. Makes 1-2 servings. Read More

Wow. This recipe turned out really well. Crispy and very flavorful. We used less hot sauce (wife does not like hot) and it was great. Read More

I didn’t have Panko crumbs so used bread crumbs instead. That made the breading a little heavier but they were delicious. I dipped them in tzatziki sauce. Yummmm Read More
