Cooking Thursday

I recently made chicken breasts in my air fryer that turned out so flavorful and juicy that I knew I had to share this recipe.  Things in the air fryer are usually quick and easy to make, and these were no exception.



Best Air Fryer Chicken Breasts

2 - 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Combine all ingredients except chicken in a large ziploc bag and miz together. Add chicken and be sure chicken is coated in the marinade.
Place in refrigerator and let marinade for at least 2 hours, may marinade overnight.
Preheat air fryer to 360 degrees for 5 minutes, then place chicken in basket and air fry for 16-20 minutes, flipping meat halfway through.
Watch closely at the end, as chicken will be dry if overdone.
Chicken is done when internal temp reaches 165 degrees.
Allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

That does look very good. I may have to get an air fryer. I vowed I wouldn’t start getting all the new cooking appliances because it’s learning to cook all over again and what if I don’t use it? Need to check into more.

Yum! Saving this one! My airfryer is smaller and would, maybe, hold two breasts - but one for sure and I can adjust accordingly! Thanks, Mari!!

Yumm, yumm, yumm. The seasonings really make the chicken "pop". I don't have an air fryer but think I can use this recipe anyway.

How delicious looking! I don't have an air fryer but I've been tempted many times. My kitchen is soooo small that I really don't have room for spare appliances. But this post sure is convincing! ~Andrea xoxo

We use our air fryer several times a week. Great addition to the kitchen!

I love the air fryer for meat like this (makes stellar boneless pork chops too). Already copied this one! Thanks for sharing my lovely Lady. xoxo

I don't have an air fryer. Wonder if you could grill this. The outside looks so nice.

sure looks good! I don't have an air fryer, but you are making me want one! It looks like it's been grilled, without the mess of using the grill. Sure looks yummy!

I just got an air fryer a short time ago and am learning how to use it. I snagged this recipe and can't wait to try it out.

Jeanette said...

Those do look good!

All the best Jan

This is awesome! I had no idea you could do this. I have an air fryer and we don't use it enough...this may change that since we eat a lot of chicken!!

The Happy Whisk said...

I agree. It really does a great job. We don't have a regular air fryer anymore though we have an air fryer lid. My gosh. I love it. Does a great job, those air fryers.

Made this for lunch and it was wonderful!l. Used one large chicken breast, so I flattened it and only cooked it 13 minutes, checking it often to not overcook it! Definitely a keeper recipe! Thanks for sharing . . .

I don't have an air fryer either but it looks like I'm going to have to get one because this looks SO delicious! xoxo
