      INSTRUCTIONS<\/h3>\n
      \n
        \n
      • \n
        Cut the chicken into cubed chunks, then toss in a large bowl with cornstarch and coat the chicken evenly.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n
        Preheat the Air Fryer to 390\u00ba Fahrenheit.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n
        Add the chicken to the prepared air fryer basket.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n
        Air fry the chicken for 24 minutes until golden brown, tossing the chicken halfway through the cooking time. Add a spritz of oil after tossing the chicken.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n
        Add the sesame chicken sauce ingredients into a small saucepan and whisk over medium heat until the sauce has reached a small boil.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n
        Once the sugar has completely dissolved, whisk in the cornstarch and water. Allow the sauce to thicken for around 5 minutes. Continue to whisk.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n

        \n

        NOTES<\/h3>\n
        <\/div>\n
        Flour is a wonderful substitute for corn starch as it has starch in it already.<\/p>\n
        <\/div>\n

        However, keep in mind; you will need twice as much flour as cornstarch to make<\/p>\n

        homemade sesame sauce.<\/p>\n

        You can also use chicken tenders or chicken breasts instead of chicken thighs.<\/p>\n

        Instead of corn starch, you can swap out tapioca flour to coat the chicken. You\u2019ll still<\/p>\n

        get crispy chicken without the added carbs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
