Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C).

  3. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and coat them thoroughly with the spice mixture.
  4. Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
