So I love air fryer recipes, they are easy to do and they require little attention or effort. I have a Tefal Actifryer and it works a dream. I might upgrade in the future but not anytime soon and I’ve been using this one for two years now and it still goes like a charm, I recommend it for sure.

I have to say when it comes to the air fryer so far this air fryer chicken breast recipe has to be my favourite. That being said I do also love my air fryer parsnips recipe and I get a lot of compliments on the recipe all the time. It made Christmas a lot easier when I didn’t have room in the cooker that’s for sure!

With this breaded chicken air fryer recipe, I mixed some pepper and chilli in with the bread crumbs to give it a little kick. You can add whatever spice you want though. The great thing with the air fryer is the chicken won’t move about so the flavour won’t get knocked off!

If you want to make an air fryer chicken breast recipe with a twist, you can use different flavour breadcrumbs. We’ve found some southern fried chicken breadcrumbs before and can’t wait to try them out, keep your eyes peeled for that recipe soon!

Breaded Chicken Air Fryer Recipe

There are so many names for this recipe it was hard to get the right one. The majority of people call it an air fryer chicken breast recipe however I’d call it an air fryer breaded chicken recipe to be fair. The one thing that’s important however is that it’s delicious!

You want to make sure that you cover the chicken breasts as much as possible and evenly. Otherwise, if the chicken is exposed it will cook quicker than the rest and might be a little bit like rubber, which nobody wants.

Also, remember to set an alarm so you know when you need to check on them, so many times I’ve forgotten to set alarms in my kitchen and I’ve ended up with burnt food, it doesn’t burn away the calories I’m afraid!
