Preheat air fryer to 375F.
In a large bowl, toss the chicken cubes with oil. In a sperate bowl combine garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, pepper, and corn starch. Add seasoning mixture to chicken and toss to coat evenly.
Place the chicken bites in the air fryer basket in a single layer (cook in batches if needed).
Air fry chicken for about 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the chicken is golden and cooked through, and internal temperature reads 165°F or 74°C on a meat thermometer.
Heat sweet chili sauce in microwave for 1 minute, stir. Toss chicken bites with sauce and top with toasted slivered almonds and sliced green onions. Serve with toothpicks as an appetizer or on top of rice as a main dish, along with steamed or stir fired vegetables.
