Weeknight Meal Perfection: This air fryer chicken recipe couldn’t be easier. If you have just 30 minutes to make a weeknight dinner that is nutritious and delicious, this should be your next go-to!

For Seasoned Air Fryer Chicken Breasts:
Chicken Breasts: Boneless, skinless chicken breast works best here. Seasoning: A simple combination of garlic powder, salt and pepper is all you need for some delicious seasoned chicken!
For Thin Breaded Air Fryer Chicken Breasts:
Chicken Breasts: Boneless, skinless chicken breast is best for this as well. I like to slice them in half to make four thinner pieces. Flour: You’ll first dip the chicken breast into a bit of flour to help it stick to the egg and then the breadcrumbs. Garlic Powder: Garlic powder seasons the flour which in turn seasons the chicken! Salt & Pepper: Season the flour with salt and pepper to taste! Egg: To bread the chicken, you will dip it in egg which helps create a layer for the breadcrumbs to stick to. Panko Breadcrumbs: Panko breadcrumbs are a great coating for the chicken to make air fryer fried chicken breast!
