Preheat air fryer to 400°F and spray basket with nonstick spray.
Set out three bowls: mix flour, cornstarch, and salt; beat eggs; place panko in third bowl.
Dredge chicken pieces in flour mixture, then eggs, then panko.
Arrange chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8 minutes, flipping halfway.
Transfer chicken to a bowl, toss with buffalo sauce, and optionally air fry for 3-4 more minutes for crispiness.
Serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing.

For extra crispiness, return the chicken to the air fryer for a few minutes after tossing in buffalo sauce.
