Ingredients

Scale
  • 650 g (1.4 lb) chicken breast (approx x4), cut in half lengthways
  • 6 tsp paprika
  • 6 tsp dark brown sugar
  • 4 tsp garlic granules
  • 3 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 200℃/400F while preparing the chicken.
  • Cut each chicken breast in half lengthways to create two thin fillets per piece.
  • In a bowl, combine the spices to make the coating, then add the chicken and coat evenly.
  • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil.
  • Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the air fryer and cook for 10-15 minutes until fully cooked, turning halfway through.

Notes

Ensure the chicken is cooked through by checking with a thermometer.
Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of the chicken fillets.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing for optimal juiciness.
