  • Pop the coated chicken breasts into the air fryer and cook at 375°F for about 10 to 15 minutes, flipping halfway through. For small breasts (5-6 ounces), cook for 8 to 10 minutes total.

  • When you flip the chicken breasts halfway through, use a pastry brush to brush on the remaining olive oil mix. Return chicken to the air fryer and cook for the rest of the allocated time, or until a meat thermometer reads an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Let the chicken breasts rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
