Peito de frango na air fryer

Ingredientes

• 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts ((2) 8 ounce chicken breasts)
• 1 tablespoon avocado oil (sub with another high heat oil)

• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• freshly chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Pound or butterfly: If the chicken breasts are quite large, place in a zip top bag and pound to uniform thickness, or butterfly the chicken by cutting it in half lengthwise to make 2 pieces.

2. 2

   Pat dry: Pat the chicken dry, then brush evenly with the oil.

3. 3

   Combine spices: Combine the smoked paprika, thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl, then rub evenly all over the chicken.

4. 4

   Air fry the chicken breasts at 380 degrees in a single layer for 8 minutes, then flip and continue cooking until an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reaches 165 degrees, around 7-10 minutes more depending on the size and thickness. Cover the chicken loosely with foil and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
