Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
  3. In another bowl, beat the egg.
  4. Dip each chicken breast into the egg, then coat evenly with the Parmesan mixture.
  5. Lightly brush the air fryer basket with olive oil and place the chicken inside.
  6. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

For extra crispiness, spray the chicken with a bit of oil before air frying. Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
