Fillet Burger

Cooking Instructions
Cooking: 20 minutes
Notes:
Create a signature spice blend combining mustard powder, ground ginger, garlic powder, white pepper, smoked paprika, oregano, basil, thyme, salt, and plenty of black pepper.
Coat the chicken thoroughly in the seasoned flour, dip in beaten egg to hydrate the flour crust, and dredge again in the flour mixture for an extra crunchy coating.
Preheat the air fryer with a little regular frying oil to ensure the breaded chicken starts crisping immediately upon contact.
Spray the top of the breaded chicken lightly with oil and flip halfway through the air-frying process to achieve an even, golden crunch.
Season Flour
Whisk plain flour together with mustard powder, ground ginger, garlic powder, white pepper, smoked paprika, oregano, basil, thyme, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl.
Flatten Chicken
Place the chicken breasts between sheets of cling wrap and pound with a rolling pin until even, then trim into burger-sized fillets and strips.
Bread Chicken
Coat each chicken piece in the seasoned flour, dip into a bowl of beaten egg until hydrated, and press back into the flour mixture for a second thick layer.
Preheat Air Fryer
Add a little frying oil into the air fryer basket and preheat at a high temperature for five minutes.
Air Fry
Place the breaded chicken into the preheated air fryer, spray the top lightly with oil, and cook until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.
Assemble and Serve
Toast your burger buns, spread with mayonnaise, add a slice of cheese and the crispy chicken fillet, and serve hot.
