Notes

Make sure the chicken breasts are not overcrowded in the air fryer. You want to give the chicken enough space to cook and maintain its crispness.
After you remove the chicken from the air fryer, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This gives the juices a chance to redistribute and keeps the chicken from being too dry.
