Description

A simple and delicious way to make crispy chicken breasts in the air fryer with minimal effort.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, then coat evenly with the spice mixture.
  4. Dredge the chicken in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  5. Place the chicken breasts in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching.
  6. Cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  7. Remove from the air fryer and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
