Crunchy Air Fryer Crispy Bang Bang Chicken Pitta Pockets. Now traditionally the chicken is “banged” but we won’t be doing that, we’re going crispy in a cornflake crumb. This serves 4 people as a light meal, you could have a salad on the side, or for 2 people its 2 large pittas. You’ll also have lots of sauce so keep some in your fridge for your next sandwich or pitta.
