Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (halal)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko for extra crunch)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: Start by patting your chicken breasts dry with paper towels.
- Create the coating mixture: In a medium bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Beat the eggs: In another bowl, beat the eggs.
- Coat the chicken: Dip each chicken breast into the egg wash, then transfer it into the breadcrumb mixture.
- Preheat the air fryer: Set your Air Fryer to 375°F (190°C) and preheat for about 5 minutes.
- Grease the basket: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray or brush it with olive oil.
- Air fry the chicken: Place the coated chicken breasts in the basket in a single layer and cook for 12-15 minutes.
- Serve the chicken: Remove the chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for a minute before serving hot.
Notes
For best results, let the coated chicken rest for about 10 minutes before air frying.
