Homemade sauce can be lower in sugar, while the ketchup mix is budget-friendly.

Wash the chicken breasts and pat them dry thoroughly. Cut them into small cubes to fit inside your food processor.

Using the chopping blade of your food processor, process the chicken cubes until you achieve finely minced chicken that sticks together as a dough.

In a mixing bowl, combine the minced chicken with onion powder, garlic powder, panko breadcrumbs, paprika, egg, chopped spring onions, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together evenly.

Form the mixture into meatballs of your desired size.

Preheat the air fryer and lightly spray it with oil to prevent sticking.

Place the meatballs in the air fryer basket and cook at 180°C (356°F) for about 12-15 minutes or until cooked through, turning halfway through the cooking time.

Once cooked, toss the meatballs in sweet chilli sauce before serving.
