- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Coat the Chicken: Coat each piece of chicken with one tablespoon of sour cream or Greek yogurt, only covering the tops of the chicken.
- Prepare the Coating: In a medium bowl, combine the panko, parmesan cheese, and seasonings. Pat the cheese mixture into the sour cream-coated chicken.
- Oil the Basket: Lightly spray or brush the olive oil onto the air fryer basket.
- Air Fry: Place the chicken into the basket and air fry at 380 degrees F for 12 minutes. Turn the chicken over and continue to air fry for an additional 4-6 minutes until crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
Notes
- Depending on the thickness of your chicken, they can cook unevenly. If your chicken breasts have different thickness, you can pound them until they are even.
- If you are making more than two pieces of chicken, be sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking.
