Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it run for 3–5 minutes to heat up.
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until every piece is evenly coated.
- Place the chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry for 10–12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly crisp on the edges.
- Divide the hot chicken evenly among the tortillas. Fold each tortilla in half to form a taco.
