Method

  • step 1

    Coat the chicken in the oil and set aside. In a bowl, combine the salt, garlic, paprika and mixed herbs with a good grinding of black pepper, then scatter onto a plate.

  • step 2

    Roll each oiled chicken breast in the seasoning and put in your air fryer basket. Cook at 180C for 18-20 mins, turning after 10 mins. To check it is cooked, pierce the chicken with a knife at the thickest part to see if the juices run clear. Or insert a temperature thermometer and it should read 70C. Serve with rice and greens or a salad.

Step 2 advises: "Or insert a temperature thermometer and it should read 70C"

Should it not be 74C minimum for chicken?

GoodFoodTeam_

Hello, this is because the internal temperature of the chicken will continue to rise up to 5 degrees after being removed from the air fryer. Removing the chicken once it's reached 70C prevents the chicken overcooking and drying out. Thanks for your question - Best wishes, Good Food Team

I hammered the chicken breasts to get a more or less even thickness before I prepared them. Juicy and delicious!

Garlic again; unnecessary: why? Just follow the crowd. What's wrong with BRITISH cooking?

If you don’t like garlic, just don’t use it.

My kids actually ate it, so it’s a winner!

This was easy and tasty, but would probably use less salt next time.
