Delicious and crunchy chicken cutlets made in the air fryer for a healthier meal option.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breast, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Dip each slice of chicken into the beaten eggs, making sure to coat completely.
  4. Transfer the chicken to the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to ensure it adheres well.
  5. Arrange the coated chicken cutlets in a single layer within the air fryer basket.
  6. Lightly spray them with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil for an extra crisp finish.
  7. Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the cutlets are golden brown and fully cooked.

Notes

For added crunch, swap breadcrumbs for panko or use gluten-free options.
