Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken breasts – equal in size
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp dried thyme – or italian seasoning
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ tsp paprika
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, dried thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
- Dry the chicken breasts with paper towels to help the seasoning stick better. Brush the spice mixture onto both sides of the chicken.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375℉ for 5 minutes. Place the chicken in a single layer in the air fryer and cook for 10 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165℉.
- Remove the chicken from the air fryer and let it rest on a cutting board or plate before slicing. This ensures the chicken remains tender and juicy! Slice and serve.
Notes
Let the chicken rest after cooking to retain its juices.
Adjust spices based on your flavor preference, adding more or less as needed.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
