A flavorful and easy-to-prepare Garlic Herb Chicken Breast cooked in an air fryer, featuring a delicious blend of garlic and herbs.
Ingredients
- 🍗 Chicken Breasts: 4 pieces (about 1.5 lbs or 680 g)
- 🛢️ Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
- 🧄 Garlic: 4 cloves, minced
- 🌿 Mixed Herbs: 2 teaspoons (such as thyme, rosemary, and oregano)
- 🧂 Salt: 1 teaspoon (or to taste)
- 🧂 Pepper: 1/2 teaspoon (or to taste)
Instructions
- Marinate the chicken by combining olive oil, minced garlic, mixed herbs, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Coat the chicken breasts well and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Place the marinated chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
