Ingredients
- 1 lb. chicken breast (2 chicken breasts)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon oregano
- ¼ teaspoon parsley
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Combine the garlic powder, salt, smoked paprika, onion powder, oregano, parsley, and pepper in a small bowl.
- Drizzle the chicken with the olive oil, then use your hands to smooth is over so the chicken is coated. Next, sprinkle the spice mixture over the chicken and again, use your hands to press it in so the chicken is coated.
- Preheat your air fryer to 380° (this should take about 3 minutes). Spray your air fryer with a little nonstick spray, then place the chicken smooth side down and cook it for 4 minutes. Use kitchen tongs to flip it over and cook for an additional 2-6 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads 165°F (allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before slicing so it can continue cooking a bit). Slice and enjoy!
