Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Skillet: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 12 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand or homemade)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Skillet:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This helps achieve a crispy texture.
2. Season the Chicken: In a small bowl, mix the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub this seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes.
4. Add Olive Oil: Brush the olive oil on the chicken breasts to enhance flavor and ensure they stay moist during cooking.
5. Cook the Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10 minutes.
6. Add BBQ Sauce: After 10 minutes, carefully flip the chicken and brush a generous amount of BBQ sauce on the cooked side. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes.
7. Check for Doneness: Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C). If necessary, add a few more minutes to the cooking time.
8. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This helps retain the juices.
9. Slice and Serve: Slice the chicken into strips or serve whole. Drizzle with additional BBQ sauce if desired.

These steps will guide you in creating an incredible BBQ chicken that is both delicious and satisfying.
