This recipe is inspired by our favorite chicken strips at Chili's, but we started with frozen strips to keep it easy and just recreated the 5 ingredient honey chipotle sauce. This sauce is both sweet and spicy and perfect for tossing your chicken strips in or just using as a dip.
Spritz chicken strips with oil spray. Place in air fryer basket in single layer.
Air fry at 370 for 8 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking.
While chicken strips are cooking add the honey, ketchup, vinegar, chipotle powder, salt, and 2 tablespoons of water to a small sauce pan over medium heat.
Bring sauce to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
To coat the strips in the sauce, pour the sauce into a large bowl and toss the cooked chicken strips in the sauce.
Notes
If you'd prefer the sauce to be more or less spicy, adjust the chipotle amounts accordingly.The sauce also makes a great dip if you'd prefer to keep things a bit neater when eating. We like the flavor of having the full chicken strip coated in sauce though.
