Serve hot with ketchup, ranch, aioli, or spicy mayo.

Best eaten fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3–4 minutes to restore crispiness.

Variations:

Spicy: Add cayenne pepper to the breadcrumb mixture.

Cheesy: Mix in 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan with the breadcrumbs.

Gluten-free: Use almond flour and gluten-free breadcrumbs.

Vegan: Use plant-based milk and a flax egg instead of eggs.
