Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Breast Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the air fryer to 370°F.

Step 2

For best results, use thin chicken breasts. If needed, slice the chicken breasts in half to create thinner pieces or place the breasts between parchment paper, plastic wrap, or in a zip-top bag and pound them thin.

Step 3

Combine the chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, onion powder, and garlic powder in a small dish.

Step 4

Coat each chicken breast with the oil and seasoning mix.

Step 5

Place the chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer. If needed, cook the chicken in batches.

Step 6

Cook for 9 minutes, flip the chicken breasts, and cook for 8 more minutes.

Step 7

Brush each chicken breast with BBQ sauce.

Step 8

Cook for another 2 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Slice and serve with additional BBQ sauce.
