AIR FRYER CHICKEN BREASTS that are super tender, flavorful & juicy!

This air fryer chicken breast recipe is essential if you're just getting into air frying. The results are incredibly tender and juicy - all from a quick 10-minute cooking process!
I love air frying as it requires less cooking time and creates immaculate results. So if you've got an air fryer, this is a staple recipe (along with my air fryer salmon) that you should keep in your back pocket to make easy, healthy dinners a breeze!

[@joannescholz1372]

I have to tell you this recipe has darn near changed my life. It has made eating healthy on weeknights so much easier. I like to cook but just don't have the motivation on weeknights after work and commuting. This is easy and quick enough to still give me time to exercise and have some downtime. And it's delicious. Thank you!

This is wonderful. Love your tips. I’m a newbie in using the air fryer. So everything I see is important. Thanks for sharing this video with us.

[@deveshsaraf8]

This was the first time that i was actually able to execute a recipe from the internet successfuly after a bunch of dreadful tried. All of this happened just because of how simplified the video was. Definitely a sub worthy. Simple and tasty.

[@maryannsantos5500]

More air-fryer recipes please! Thanks so much ☺️

[@timaborlak5457]

Yes, please more air fryer recipes. Ever since my oven died I only have the stove top and my air fryer. I'll be heading to the grocery store tomorrow to get some chicken breasts and spices! this looks delicious and so fast!

[@Downshiftology]

Good to know! Will definitely be making more air fryer recipes 😉

[@andree2808]

So glad you’re doing air fryer recipes! Thank you. Will try this one, and looking forward to the next ones 😊

[@Downshiftology]

I know! I've had mine for awhile now, but am excited to start making recipes for you all ❤️

[@theroadhome_Liz_Summers]

I made this for my lunch today ... exactly as you said and results were perfect. I had a small, med-thin chicken breast at it was 165 when I took it out so could have gone less time, but it was still juicy and moist! I have been amazed how well the airfryer does with meat, even things like this that are prone to overcooking/drying out. I cooked a Pork Loin roast (2.25 pounds) and it was wonderful! I was a bit leery as I would usually cook that low and slow.

[@mariaines6852]

Yes please more Air fryer recipes. Loved your book! 👏👏👏

Thanks for this! Question: when you are making multiple items in the air fryer (potatoes, veggies, chicken), how do you keep one item fresh and warm while working on the other items? Thanks!

[@rembertoadambelcourt7586]

[@NavymomProud]

Yes please more air fryer recipes. I don’t have one yet as I didn’t think I needed one and have no counter or storage space. But I’m seriously revisiting the idea; if you have review-type information on best brands/features that would be much appreciated also. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@Downshiftology]

After making a few more recipes, I think it's definitely worth it for easy and efficient cooking! Plus, you can make things extra crispy in it 😉

[@cynthiamillentree4886]

:Lisa you just keep everything simple , fresh , and easy to prepare, and let's not forget that every thing that i have tried has turned out delicious. It's a game changer for me this year. I love lamb and a good lamb recipe in the Air Fryer would be nice, because lamb can sometimes be gamey and tough if not cooked right. But I love all parts of the lamb.

[@Downshiftology]

I'm so glad you're enjoying Downshiftology recipes Cynthia! Hope you enjoy this air fryer chicken and I'll be sure to keep in mind of a lamb recipe as well.

[@omarsherif6198]

Followed this recipe, the chicken was lovely

[@Downshiftology]

Great to hear! 😊

[@batman607]

Great video and great advice, I find that sometimes I pound my meat too much and it comes out hard like a rock when cooked.Thinking about getting a meat tenderizer attachment for my Kitchen Aid mixer. Probably won’t work with chicken though. Your thoughts greatly appreciated.

[@lukikinney578]

Look very easy and quick I will try it .

[@Downshiftology]

So easy and the results are quite juicy 😊
