Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Chicken Breast
Description
Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Chicken Breast is a perfectly seasoned and delicious chicken dish. Complete with a crispy coating, this is one of my favorite chicken recipes.
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup Panko bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 2/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 4 tablespoons butter, unsalted
Instructions
- Start by cutting your breasts in half, and then use a mallet to thin your chicken. It will come out better if it’s thinner in the air fryer.
- Then in a small bowl, mix the herbs and panko breadcrumbs.
- Add the mayonnaise to a resealable bag.
- Then place your chicken inside the bag, coating it on both sides.
- Then dip your coated chicken in the panko/herb bread crumb mix.
- As you coat them, place them in either a greased (with olive oil) basket or air fryer tray.
- The crucial step–if you want really crispy chicken, you must spray the entire coating with olive oil.
- In a small mixing bowl, mix the butter and minced garlic.
- Set the temperature to 370 degrees F for 7 minutes. After 7 minutes, flip the chicken and air fry for another 5 minutes. Check the internal temperature after this, and make sure it’s at least 165 degrees F.
- Then add the shredded Parmesan cheese and top the cheese with the garlic butter. Set into the air fryer for 2 to 3 minutes, just enough for the cheese to start to melt as well as the butter.
- Plate, serve, and enjoy!
