Notes
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil spray
Instructions:
- Prep the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Make the Coating: In a shallow bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
- Coat the Chicken: Lightly spray the chicken breasts with olive oil to help the coating stick. Dredge each piece of chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
- Air Fry the Chicken: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the coated chicken breasts in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the crust is golden and crispy.
- Serve: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy, Parmesan-crusted chicken with your favorite side dish!
