Instructions

Prep the Chicken

Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Then use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound each piece to an even thickness. This helps it cook evenly and stay juicy.

Season Generously

Drizzle a bit of olive oil over each breast. Rub the seasoning mix on all sides so the flavor sticks during cooking.

Air Fry

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F or 200°C. Place the chicken in a single layer inside the basket. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Rest and Serve

Remove the chicken and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices stay inside the meat instead of spilling out.
