  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 9 minute

Ingredients

– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– ½ teaspoon dried oregano
– ½ teaspoon dried thyme
– Optional: Fresh herbs for garnish (parsley or cilantro)


Instructions

Creating delicious Air Fryer Chicken Breast is easy when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
2. Prepare Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
3. Season Chicken: In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, oregano, and thyme. Rub this mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
4. Place in Air Fryer: Arrange the seasoned chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching.
5. Cook Chicken: Air fry the chicken at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes. Flip the chicken halfway through cooking for even browning.
6. Check Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; the internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
7. Rest Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts from the air fryer and let them rest for 5 minutes. This helps retain moisture.
8. Slice and Serve: Slice the chicken against the grain for tender pieces, and prepare to serve.

These steps will guide you in creating an incredible Air Fryer Chicken Breast that is both delicious and satisfying.
