Ingredients

– 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 lemon (juice and zest)
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Air Fryer Lemon Chicken Bites is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the boneless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
2. Make the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
3. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes for enhanced flavor.
4. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
5. Arrange Chicken in the Air Fryer: Place the marinated chicken pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding for even cooking.
6. Cook the Chicken: Cook the chicken bites for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure they cook evenly.
7. Check for Doneness: Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) for safety.
8. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the air fryer and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

These steps will guide you in crafting perfectly cooked Air Fryer Lemon Chicken Bites that are bursting with flavor.
