Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Meat Thermometer
  • Small Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat air fryer to 380°F.
  2. Mix olive oil and all spices in a bowl.
  3. Pat chicken dry and coat evenly with the spice mix.
  4. Place in a single layer in the basket.
  5. Cook for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  6. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Notes

1. Dry the Meat: Always pat chicken dry with paper towels to ensure the seasoning sticks. 2. Temperature is Key: Use a meat thermometer to pull the chicken at exactly 165°F. 3. The Rest: Let the chicken sit for 5 minutes before slicing; this keeps the moisture locked inside.
