Introduction
Looking for a simple yet delicious chicken recipe that’s crispy on the outside and tender on the inside? This Crispy Air Fryer Lemon Herb Chicken is a perfect choice. With the air fryer, you can achieve that golden, crispy skin without deep frying. The lemon and herb marinade adds freshness and zest to the chicken, making it a flavorful dish that’s both healthy and easy to make.
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp olive oil
1 lemon (zested and juiced)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried thyme
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions:
Prepare the chicken: Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This will help the marinade stick better and the chicken cook more evenly.
Make the marinade: In a bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
Marinate the chicken: Coat the chicken breasts in the marinade and let it sit for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the fridge for deeper flavor.
Preheat the air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes.
