  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 42 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– Cooking spray (for air fryer)


Instructions

Creating Air Fried Chicken Cutlets is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare Chicken: Start by slicing the chicken breasts into thin cutlets, about ½ inch thick.
2. Set Up Dredging Station: In three separate bowls, place flour in one, beaten eggs in the second, and seasoned breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in the third.
3. Coat Chicken: Take each chicken cutlet and dip it first into the flour, ensuring it’s fully coated. Shake off any excess flour.
4. Dip in Eggs: Next, dip the floured cutlet into the beaten eggs, making sure it’s completely covered.
5. Coat with Breadcrumbs: Finally, press the cutlet into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it is well coated on both sides.
6. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
7. Arrange Cutlets: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange the coated chicken cutlets in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overlap.
8. Cook: Air fry the chicken cutlets for about 10-12 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even cooking.
9. Check Doneness: Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
10. Rest: Once cooked, remove the cutlets from the air fryer and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Following these steps will ensure your Air Fried Chicken Cutlets turn out perfectly golden and delicious!
