Easy Air Fryer Grilled Chicken Breast

07/12/2021 by The Mama Maven

I’ve had an air fryer for several years now, but what I haven’t been able to manage is a good grilled-style chicken breast – until now. While it’s made in an air fryer, this will taste exactly like the delicious grilled chicken you love. Simple doesn’t have to mean bland, you know. But this delicious air fryer simple grilled chicken breast can be served with sauces on the side or by itself. The key to making this is to use spices so you get some flavor. You can definitely vary the spices you use. I tend to love anything from Trader Joe’s, McCormick, or the Simply Organic line of spices. For this version of my easy Air Fryer Grilled Chicken Breast, I only used two things to flavor my chicken breast – olive oil spray and Simply Organics’s Grilling Seasons Chicken. Simply Organics Grilling Seasons Chicken contains organic garlic, sea salt, organic sage, organic onion, organic rosemary, organic marjoram, organic thyme, organic oregano, organic black pepper, organic fennel seed, organic coriander, organic peppermint leaf (no, you don’t taste it), and organic bay leaf. Enjoy my easy Air Fryer Grilled Chicken Breast recipe.

Delicious and Easy Air Fryer Grilled Chicken Breast

Ingredients:

Chicken Breast – 1-2 lbs
Simply Organics’s Grilling Seasons Chicken (to taste)
Olive Oil Spray (or use extra virgin olive oil)

Instructions:

Prepare your air fryer. I like to use either foil or parchment paper on top of foil. Then space your chicken out better than I did (ie. do it in batches). My air fryer does pre-heating when you turn it on, so build in some time to get it going.

Chicken on Foil
Seasoning the chicken

Spray with Olive Oil spray or extra virgin olive oil (I like this one). Coat thoroughly (both sides). Then sprinkle with spices. Coat thoroughly. Air Fry at 400 degrees for 40-45 minutes (I check it often). Turn over your chicken halfway through cooking. I cut mine in small pieces, which I felt was better for air frying.

The Air Fryer I use is the Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer 360 Oven and I absolutely love it. It can be used to air fry, toast, broil, slow cook and more. I seriously use it everyday. It’s super easy to clean, which is a huge plus in my book.
