Step 1

Line a 20cm square pan with baking paper allowing the paper to overhang two sides.

Step 2

Place the cream cheese, chicken and Mexican cheese in a bowl. Beat with a wooden spoon until smooth. Transfer to the prepared pan, smoothing the surface. Place in the fridge for 1 hour or until firm.

Step 3

Turn the cheese mixture out onto a chopping board. Use a long sharp knife to cut into 2cm x 10cm pieces. Place in the freezer for 1 hour.

Step 4

Lightly whisk the eggs in a bowl. Place the flour on a plate and the breadcrumbs on a separate plate. Working in batches, toss the cheese pieces in the flour, then in the eggs and then in breadcrumbs, pressing to coat. Place in the freezer for 1 hour.

Step 5

Spray the air fryer basket with oil. Place one-third of the sticks in the basket leaving space for the air to circulate. Spray with oil. Cook at 200C, turning and respraying with oil, for 4 minutes or until crisp. Repeat with remaining cheese sticks.

Step 6

Serve the cheesy sticks with tomato salsa to dip.
