Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with oregano, paprika, and garlic powder until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Spray the chicken with cooking spray, then dredge in the breadcrumbs mixture. Shake off excess breading. Repeat for the remaining chicken.
  4. Spray the air fryer pan with cooking spray. Then spray the outside of the breaded chicken with cooking spray. Place the chicken in the basket of the air fryer, without over crowding the pan. You may need to work in batches.
  5. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown. Cook time will depend on the size and thickness of the chicken breasts.
  6. Remove and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 3-4 days in the fridge. To reheat, just place in the air fryer at 360°F for 2-3 minutes until heated through and crispy. You can also reheat the chicken in the microwave but it won't be as crispy!
  • Make Ahead Tips: To make the recipe even faster, you can assemble the breading ahead of time or use seasoned breadcrumbs
  • Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However, you can switch out the spices if you'd like. 
  • * Please note the nutrition label does not include any dip or sauce.
