Quick, flavorful, and healthy air fryer grilled chicken breasts that are easy to make and perfect for any meal.


Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Lemon juice for marinating


Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Rub the spice mixture over the chicken breasts.
  4. (Optional) Marinate the chicken in lemon juice for 15-30 minutes for added flavor.
  5. Place the chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  6. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Notes

Pat the chicken dry before seasoning for better spice adherence. Use an instant-read thermometer for perfect doneness.
