Method

  1. 1

    Even the thickness

    Pat the chicken dry. If one end is much thicker, gently flatten it so the breast cooks more evenly.

  2. 2

    Season

    Rub with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Air fry

    Place in the air fryer basket with space around each breast. Cook at 190°C, turning once.

    14 min timer

  4. 4

    Check temperature

    Continue cooking only as needed until the thickest part reaches 75°C internally.

    Checkpoint 75°C — read with a thermometer

  5. 5

    Rest

    Rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

    5 min timer
