Air Fryer Stuffed Chicken Breast is so simple to make and absolutely perfectly cooked in the air fryer. Today I used some ingredients I had in my refrigerator, and my family had a great lunch in no time.
If you have not made air fryer chicken, you have been misisng out, perfectly cooked and the inside is juicy and tender. And it is so fast, you have oodles of time, by using the air fyrer.
Today, I went with a traditional stuffed chicken breast, using Broccoli and Cheddar Cheese. But you can use anything you have on hand. I plan on doing a stuffing version soon. The other great idea I have is a chicken breast stuffed with ham and cheese the ideas are endless!
