Ingredients
  

  • 3 pieces Chicken breast
  • 1.5 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon Black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon Garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Onion granules
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning or ¼ teaspoon rosemary and ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt to taste

Notes

  • Use a similar size of chicken breast.
  • Adjust pepper according to preference.
  • It's best to marinate chicken for at least 30 minutes.
  • Don't reuse marinade that has already come in contact with the chicken. Discard any marinade that has come into contact with the chicken.

  • Arrange chicken in a single layer in the air fryer and don't overcrowd. Don't stack them. If need be cook in batches.
