Air Fryer Chicken Parmesan
Air fryer chicken parmesan is the perfect quick recipe that's flavorful yet quickly made using the air fryer.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds thin chicken breast cutlets
- 3/4 cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- First, pat the chicken breast dry. You should be using seasoned breadcrumbs but you can add a light coating of salt and pepper if you'd like.
- Set up an egg wash station and a breading station on the counter. Dip the chicken in the egg wash then cover with the breadcrumbs. Important step, set the breaded chicken on a plate or cutting board for about 5 minutes. This will allow the breadcrumbs to really stick to the chicken and absorb some of the egg.
- Preheat the air fryer to 360℉.
- Once preheated place the chicken in the air fryer then set the time for 12 minutes. At the 6 minute mark, flip the chicken then add two spoonfuls of marinara sauce then add the cheese. Cook a remaining 6 minutes.
- Once done, allow to cool a bit, sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the chicken then serve.
