Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat: Preheat your air fryer to 370 degrees Fahrenheit for a few minutes. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place in a medium bowl.
- Season: Whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub chicken with seasoning mix.
- Cook: Place the chicken breasts in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 370 degrees Fahrenheit for 9 minutes. Flip the chicken over and cook for 9 more minutes, or until its internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Rest: Remove the chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Serve: Serve it and enjoy!
Notes
For even cooking, don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket. Switch the flavors with Italian seasoning, Greek seasoning blend, Cajun seasoning, or even lemon pepper. Cooking time will depend on your air fryer model and the size of the chicken. Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 165°F. Store leftovers in an air-tight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
