Start by preheating your air fryer to 380°F (193°C). This ensures that the chicken will cook evenly and develop that crispy exterior.
In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. This blend will create a flavorful marinade.
Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. For best results, let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Once marinated, place the chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
Cook the chicken for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps keep it juicy.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with your choice of vegetables for a complete meal.
