- 1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, cut into 1-inch pieces

Directions
- Preheat air-fryer to 400°F. Place eggs, and 1/2 cup cornstarch in 2 separate medium bowls. Dip chicken into egg, then into cornstarch, shaking off any excess. Working in batches, place chicken in an even layer into air-fryer, and coat with olive oil cooking spray. Cook, flipping chicken halfway through until golden-brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F, about 15-18 minutes. Repeat with remaining chicken
- Meanwhile, mix remaining cornstarch and water together in small bowl until combined. Bring to a boil ketchup, San-J Sweet Tamari, vinegar, sesame oil and garlic in small saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in cornstarch mixture and cook, over medium-low heat until thickened and flavors develop, about 3-4 minutes.
- Toss chicken, sauce and sesame seeds in large bowl until evenly coated. Garnish with green onions. Serve with rice and enjoy.
