Ingredients
Chicken
- 2 boneless chicken breasts
Seasonings
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 375 °F (190 °C) to ensure even cooking and a crispy texture.
- Season the Chicken: Rub the chicken breasts thoroughly with olive oil and evenly coat them with garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper for flavor.
- Air Fry: Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes on one side, then flip and cook another 8 to 10 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165 °F (74 °C) for safe consumption.
- Rest the Chicken: Remove the chicken breasts and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute, ensuring tender and juicy results before slicing.
Notes
- For extra moisture, brine the chicken for 15 minutes in salted water before cooking.
- Leftover chicken is great for salads, sandwiches, or wraps for easy meal prep.
