Ingredients
Scale
- Four skinless, boneless chicken breasts (6 oz. each)
- Two tablespoons melted butter
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon paprika, smoked
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Mix the butter, salt, and spices in a bowl and brush the mixture evenly over the breasts.
- Stand the breasts against the sides of the air fryer basket and set the temperature to 350°F. Cook the chicken tenders for 15 minutes, turn them, and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Check for doneness with a meat thermometer. If the indicator reads 165°F, set the chicken breasts down and serve.
- You can coat the chicken breasts with flour and bread crumbs before you air fry them. And you can serve them with mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese, potato salad, coleslaw, Southern-syle green beans, corn on the cob, or Zucchini fries. You can also place them next to BBQ, Buffalo, or any other dipping sauce of your choice.
