Air Fryer Chicken Breasts
These Air Fryer Chicken Breasts are perfectly seasoned on the outside and juicy on the inside. Ready in just a few minutes with basically no prep!
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (or all-purpose flour)
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 375℉.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Add the chicken breasts and massage the spices all over.
- Add the chicken in a single layer to the air fryer basket. Air fry for 6 minutes. Flip and air-fry for another 6-10 minutes until cooked through (the exact time depends on the thickness of your breasts and your brand of air fryer). You want the internal temperature to reach 160°F in the thickest part.
- Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
