Ingredients for Air Fryer Chicken Breasts:

• 650g Chicken breasts, cut in half lengthways

For the coating:

• 6 tsp Paprika
• 6 tsp Dark brown sugar
• 4 tsp Garlic granules
• 3 tsp Dried oregano
• 1 tsp Sea salt
• 1/2 Freshly ground black pepper

Method:

Step 1:

While you're prepping the chicken, put the air fryer on to preheat at 200C/400F

Step 2:

Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthways (so you end up with two very thin fillets per breast).

Step 3:

Make the coating by mixing the spices in a bowl, then add your chicken pieces and coat well.

Step 4:

Spray the air fryer basket with oil. Carefully place the chicken in the air fryer in a single layer and cook for 10 - 15 minutes until cooked through (the timings will depend on how thick the chicken pieces are, always check with a thermometer to be sure). Turn over halfway.
