Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 500 g Chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt Adjust to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • Fresh herbs (cilantro or parsley) For garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by rinsing your protein under cold water. Then, pat dry thoroughly with a paper towel.
Marination
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss the protein pieces in the mixture until they are evenly coated.
Preheat the Air Fryer
  1. Set your air fryer to 200°C (390°F). Preheating ensures that your meal cooks evenly and gets that crispy texture we all crave!
Cooking
  1. Place the marinated protein in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them. Cook for about 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Check for Doneness
  1. After 12 minutes, ensure that the protein is cooked through and has a golden-brown exterior. If required, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Serving
  1. Once cooked, remove from the air fryer and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs and go wild with your choice of toppings!

Notes

For best results, consider using plant-based protein for a vegetarian option. Always monitor cooking time as it can vary based on your air fryer.
