Air Fryer-Parmesan-Breaded Chicken With Lemon Aioli Sauce

This is a great recipe. This is my go-to recipe for making boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the air fryer.  I have been making it all the time, it’s extremely versatile, very tasty and my entire family eats it. What’s better than that. One meal for the entire family, where everyone eats. You can either serve these as is or make a sauce to go on with it, today I made a simple lemon aioli sauce because my kids love dipping their food. (don’t most kids?)

These can be made and breaded ahead of time, so when you come home from work, errands, sports, etc., you can just flip them into the air fryer. I made them a variety of ways, the best thing to do, is to flatten the chicken with a mallet, so the thickness is about 1/2 inch thick. Of course, the thickness of the meat will determine the exact air frying time. I find that that makes the chicken more moist, and juicy.

In my house, we all eat a ton of chicken, I listed some of my popular recipes, below. My kids can seriously eat the Fake Chic Fil a sandwich, almost every day.
