Ingredients
Scale
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the chicken breasts into cutlets.
Set up a breading station with three bowls: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Dredge each chicken cutlet in flour, dip in egg, and coat with breadcrumbs.
Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray and place the breaded cutlets in a single layer.
Spray the top of the cutlets with cooking spray.
Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in buttermilk for a few hours before breading.
Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the cutlets.
Serve with a side salad or vegetables for a complete meal.
