Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Breast
This recipe is a fantastic example of how your Frigidaire air fryer oven can deliver restaurant-quality results with ease. Forget greasy fried chicken; this method is healthier and just as satisfying.
Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 20 minutes Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions:
- Preheat your Frigidaire air fryer oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Drizzle olive oil over chicken breasts and then generously coat them with the spice mixture.
- Place the chicken breasts in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. If necessary, cook in batches.
- Air fry for 18-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Flip halfway through for even cooking.
- Remove from the air fryer and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Cooking Tips:
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; this will prevent even cooking and lead to soggy chicken.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to a safe internal temperature.
- For extra crispy chicken, you can lightly spray the chicken with cooking spray before adding the spice mixture.
Variations:
- Lemon Herb Chicken: Add the zest and juice of one lemon, along with dried herbs like thyme and rosemary to the spice mixture.
- Spicy Chicken: Incorporate a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder for a spicy kick.
- Parmesan Crusted Chicken: Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the chicken before air frying.
