Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
½ cup Parmesan cheese grated
½ cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 eggs beaten
Olive oil spray

Instructions

Preheat the Air Fryer to 380°F.
In a shallow dish, combine the Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, garlic powder, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each chicken breast in the beaten eggs, then coat it with the Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to ensure it sticks.
Lightly spray the Air Fryer basket with olive oil. Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the basket, ensuring they don’t touch each other.
Give the tops of the chicken breasts a light spray of olive oil.
Air fry the chicken at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. Using a meat thermometer, the internal temperature should be 165°F.
Serve the Parmesan-crusted chicken hot, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauces.

Notes

Don’t Overcrowd the Basket: Make sure the chicken pieces aren’t touching. This way, you get even cooking and crispiness.
Preheat the Air Fryer: Always preheat your air fryer for the best results.
Flip Halfway: To make sure the chicken cooks evenly and gets that perfect golden brown crust, give the pieces a flip halfway through cooking.
