1 egg, whisk until mixed
08 -
Cooking spray or olive oil
# Instructions:
01 -
Get your air fryer heated up to 400°F (200°C). Let it run for 5 minutes to warm up.
02 -
Cut the chicken breast horizontally into two thinner pieces. Sprinkle both sides with pepper and salt.
03 -
Mix together the panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, and oregano in a shallow bowl. Use another bowl to whisk the egg well.
04 -
Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mix, letting any extra liquid fall off. Cover it in the panko-Parmesan blend, pressing so it sticks nicely.
05 -
Coat your air fryer basket with cooking spray, then lay the breaded chicken inside without piling them on. Spray the tops lightly as well.
06 -
Cook in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes. Flip them over halfway through. They're done when golden and the middle hits 165°F (74°C).
# Notes:
01 -
Make sure the chicken is the same thickness so it cooks evenly
02 -
Don't crowd the air fryer so air can flow
03 -
Always check the center temperature to ensure it's done
