Cut the chicken into strips and place in a bowl.
Pour in the milk and hot sauce, mix well and let marinate for at least 1 hour.
Combine the flour, breadcrumbs and seasonings in a separate bowl.
Once the chicken is done marinating, dip each strip into the coating mixture and coat evenly. Place on a clean plate while finishing the others.
Cook the chicken strips in an air-fryer at 180C for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Ensure the chicken is cooked through thoroughly before eating.
Alternatively, cook in the oven at 185C for 25 minutes, again flipping halfway though.
Serve with mashed potatoes, gravy and enjoy!
