Description

A delicious and easy dish combining juicy chicken with a flavorful marinade, perfect for a quick and healthy meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
  2. Place the chicken breasts in the marinade and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  4. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it in the air fryer basket.
  5. Cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  6. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for longer. Always let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking to maintain juices. Spray cooking oil for a crispier texture.
