Description
A quick and easy recipe for crispy, flavorful chicken breasts, coated in a savory mayonnaise and parmesan crust, cooked in an air fryer for a healthier alternative to frying.
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well blended.
- Coat both chicken breasts thoroughly with the mayonnaise mixture, ensuring each piece is well covered.
- Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the mayonnaise-coated chicken, pressing lightly to adhere.
- Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Place the coated chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
- Air fry for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
- Once done, remove the chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For added flavor, consider mixing in dried herbs with the parmesan before sprinkling. Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
