How to Make Air Fryer Chicken Breasts
Can you rub the oil on the chicken instead of spraying it?
Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook Time: 10 Minutes
I love dry chicken smothered in gravy.
Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS
8 kids š®š± so pulling it out at 155 degrees is there a need to check the temp 10 minutes later to be sure itās 165? I just bout ur cookbook too š
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each)
1 teaspoon salt
I prefer my chicken to be crispier and dryer than that!
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon onion powder
Iām doing this for a diet plan I made and following Iām doing a chicken breast broccoli carrots and mashed potatoes (water boiled) I wanted to ask and please answer genuinely if you know (cause this will be my same meal for every lunch in every day) is this healthy to do it everyday on the air frier? Thank you for reading
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
A whole chicken breast takes me 10 minutes each side.
pinch cayenne pepper
olive or avocado oil spray
8 kids!! Phwoar!!
INSTRUCTIONS
Pound the thicker end of each chicken breast to even it out so they will cook more evenly. Pat chicken dry with paper towel.
Please add Celsius in your future video so that it would be easy for the rest of the world
In a small bowl, combine salt, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
Spritz chicken with oil and rub to coat. Season both sides of chicken with the seasoning.
Did you use thee air fry setting? Thanj you!
Place chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer, no overlapping. Cook at 380Ā°F/193Ā°C
for about 8-10 minutes, turning halfway, until cooked through and instant read thermometer inserted into center of thickest part reads 155Ā°F/68.3Ā°C.
Iāve had an air fryer for a while, but Iām kinda intimidated by it. Itās just a weird thing to me and Iāve pretty much used it once since getting it as a gift last Christmas. Tried this and it turned out AMAZING! Definitely making air fried chicken regularly from here on!
Let chicken rest for 5-10 minutes to finish cooking, then slice and serve.

380 for 8-10 in, flip halfway

I did everything that you said but I took quite a bit longer in my air fryer. Must not be as efficient. I undercooked and wrapped and it was delicious! So tender and juicy!

I'm new to air fryer cooking technology as well and bought the Cosori. This looks pretty easy and I'm thinking with bone-in breasts the cooking time might be a little less? I like the foil wrap idea at 155, you can always add cook time but not take it away after the fact.

1:19 Season Air Fryer Chicken Breasts
Hi sweetheart, I need your help. I just bought the Cosori Air Fryer 5qt (4.7L) from Amazon. The instructions for cooking (setting) chicken suggest 380Ā°F for 20 minutes. However, I'm concerned that cooking chicken breast for that long will result in dry, chewy meat. Could you please suggest how to cook chicken breast (whole, cubed, strips, etc.) in this air fryer? I'd also appreciate it if you could explain why the settings recommend cooking chicken for 20 minutes. I would appreciate any valuable advice you give. Thank you.

Tip: Put your plate in the microwave for 30-60 seconds before resting chicken.

@russellgibson667Most of the world uses C not F. Please include both.
@missmayflowerI love your videos. Iām going to try this recipe today in my air fryer. I have a questionā¦ What does it mean when your air fryer basket starts to look like itās getting Rusty? I wondered if I am washing it too much even though I donāt use any kind of Brillo pad
@ms.rickieMother of 8. Ill not have kids to compensate the 8 little eaters you made.
@se7en910My air fryer stays at 400 so how long??
@deeblock518Just used your recipe AWESOME results!!!š
@KISSGreatestFanThanks!
@KISSGreatestFanWait do you air fry it or roast it ?
@LeoSamaniego-e1jThank you for this! I used one of the Perdue singles, and it was smaller than usual. I had to cook it 5 minutes on each side at 380 degrees.
@SunshinenseaSingle cat here, turned out perfect. Thank you so much for the lesson.
@jeremysharp7079I hope sheās not talking about her wizard sleeve cause I like the taste of chicken better than fish š
@ThomasFarnum200 celsius is 400 F. Most air fryers go up to 400 except the original Nuwave. It only goes to 350 F.
@gwain7179Wow mother of 8 , bet u love airfyer just got mine im now subscribed ā¤
@carolinebielby5924Mother of eight kids? Well, if you ever lived in Venice Beach, CA one of them may be mine; I had a girlfriend named Kathy back in the day.
Could have been Cathy; I never asked, but there is a resemblance.
Great video. I just bought an air fryer and I canāt believe that Iāve been missing out all these years. This is truly a revolutionary kitchen device
@leelee39952:49 Wrong. The safe internal temp is dependent on time. Chicken only needs to be 160 for 15 seconds to be safe, don't bring it all the way to 165. By the time you get there, that 15 seconds has come and gone. If you are slow cooking (smoking/etc) you can get away with much less, I usually take chicken breast out of the smoker at 150, because if I bring it all the way to 165, it is certainly overcooked. Carry over cooking like what you are talking about does happen, but not 10 degrees. The result is about the same though, covering it keeps it at a high temp longer meaning it does NOT reach 165, but it IS safe to eat.
@amedaius8492TFS!
@tgayer1Taking the chicken out 10 degrees before its reached its temperature is extremely risky.
@jamesg871Is virgin olive oil out of the bottle ok?
@josephf1555Eight Kids??Āæ?? Close you legs or take it in the butt!!!!!!!!!
@frankhaller5008Shouldāve covered the chicken with plastic wrap before pounding it
@timburton9514Ohhhhh my goodness. This will be PERFECT for dinner tonight. Thanks to the hurricane ( Debbie) we are still out of power and I have chicken breast I MUST cook tonight. Iām looking forward to plugging the air fryer into the generator and enjoying a nice dinner in a short amount of time ā£ļø
@kathyparker5899The breast I had was so big I had to cook them for 380 28mins I got the same air fryer just the beast I got was a lot bigger. Great tips and video thanks..
@xAllSystemsReadyxYou said that in order to cook evenly, you pat the chicken down.
What I do is cut slits about 1/2 way trough the chicken from top to bottom. Cooks perfectly even throughout š
I've had my air fryer for four years, other then frozen fries, and chicken bites, I have not used it until our BBQ broke. I cooked the steak in the air fryer that night, it was great! Next I tried a Turkey tenderloin, great. Last night stuffed bell peppersš. Tomorrow night, chicken breast. Question to self, why has it taken so long to start really cook with the air fryer! Just glad I started.
