Air Fryer Panko Chicken Breast Food

AIR FRYER GARLIC PANKO CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Start by drying the chicken off with a paper towel.
• Then use a mallet and pound the chicken until it's about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.
• In a small mixing bowl, mix the panko bread crumbs, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
• Dip the chicken breast into the beaten egg, and then dip into the panko mixture, covering both sides. Use your hands to press the panko into the breast.
• Place the coated chicken breast into the air fryer basket. Spray the coating GENEROUSLY with olive oil; this will help the coating crisp up.
• Allow the air fryer to preheat, set the chicken into the air fryer, set the temperature to 370 degrees F (air fryer setting) for 5 minutes, and then flip (pray again with olive oil). Air fry for another 3-4 minutes until the chicken's internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
• Plate, serve, and enjoy!

HEALTHY AIR FRYER PARMESAN CHICKEN WITH BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Stir together the panko, Parmesan, 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, the oregano, pinch of salt and a couple grinds of pepper in a shallow bowl or small baking dish until thoroughly combined. Pat the chicken dry between a couple paper towels, then sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Brush both sides of the chicken with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the Dijon, then press into the panko-Parmesan mixture, making sure both sides are evenly coated.
• Toss the broccoli, remaining 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, a good pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper in a medium bowl until evenly coated.
• Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 375 degrees F. Add the chicken to the air-fryer basket and cook until it's starting to brown and crisp on the top, about 6 minutes. Flip the chicken over with tongs and position in the center of the basket, then scatter the broccoli around the perimeter. Continue air-frying until the chicken is crisp all over and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle registers 160 degrees F, and the broccoli is tender and charred, about 8 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, stir together the yogurt, lemon zest and juice, remaining 1/4 teaspoon Dijon, a pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Serve alongside the chicken and broccoli for dipping.

CRISPY PANKO CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Pound chicken breasts, one at a time in a resealable freezer bag, until about 1/2-inch thick. Lightly beat egg in a shallow bowl.

Press chicken into crumbs until fully coated.
