INGREDIENTS
6 oz Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
1/3 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
Nonstick Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Begin by placing the chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound it to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a bowl, combine the buttermilk with a pinch of salt and pepper. Submerge the chicken in the buttermilk mixture and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
In another shallow dish, mix together the all-purpose flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and a little extra salt and pepper.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge it thoroughly in the flour mixture until evenly coated.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Lightly spray the basket with nonstick cooking spray.
Place the coated chicken breast in the air fryer basket. Spray a light coating of cooking spray on top of the chicken to help with crisping.
Air fry the chicken for about 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp and golden.
Once done, remove the chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy yet lean air-fried chicken!
