This has been our go-to-recipe this summer because it's so quick, easy and full of flavor! It turns out perfect every time and is such a great alternative to having to fire up the grill. The chicken turns out juicy and tender and doesn't have to marinate for hours beforehand so if you're in a pinch you can run by the grocery store on your way home to pick up chicken breasts and be good to go!
What You'll Need...
- 1.5 - 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper, cracked
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- spray oil
- bbq sauce
What You'll Do...
Step 1 - Combine the paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
Step 2 - Trim the chicken breasts and if they're super uneven in thickness you'll want to pound them out a bit. Dry them with a paper towel.
Step 3 - Spray both sides of the chicken breasts with oil (I use a spray avocado oil) and then cover both sides with the spice mix. Press the mix into the breasts a bit so it sticks.
Step 4 - Preheat your airfryer to 360 degrees and then spray the basket with the oil and place your chicken breasts "top side" down and cook for 10 minutes. Flip them and cook for 8-10 minutes more. I will usually check mine at 8 mins and as long as they're 165 degrees inside they're good to go! Cover them with bbq sauce (keep them in the basket), spread it around and cook them for about 2 more minutes.
Seriously these couldn't be easier and they're SO DELICIOUS!!
Happy Wednesday, friends!!!
PS - this is the air fryer that we have and love!
Have you used air fryer liners?? Find them on Amazon! Quick easy clean up and they're cheap!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds so easy and delicious! We had a Cosori air fryer and loved it, but it was part of the recall they had and I am waiting for them to ship out my new one. We are having withdrawals not having it. We never realized how much we used our airfyer.
ReplyDeleteYou posted this last Wednesday and I immediately made it that night and we're having it again tonight, less than a week later. It's so so good! Everyone in my family loves is so much!
