BEST BASIC CHICKEN

Edit
Serves:1 serving

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken tenderloins (thawed)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp paprika

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make sure chicken tenderloins are thawed and patted dry.

  2. 2

    Mix all seasonings together in a small bowl, then rub seasoning mixture on both sides of chicken.

  3. 3

    Add chicken in an even layer to air fryer and cook for 5 minutes on 400 F, flip each piece, then continue to cook for another 5 minutes. (immediately remove from air fryer so chicken doesn't get dry)

  4. 4

    Let them rest on a cutting board for a couple minutes before slicing with a sharp knife.

  5. 5

    *If you don't have access to air fryer, you can cook these in a skillet the same way (medium high heat), dice into bite sized pieces and let them sit until underside is seared, then flip and continue cooking until golden brown.

  6. 6

    So quick, easy, and flavorful. Switch up the toppings/seasonings, add it to salads, stir fry, pastas, or casseroles. This chicken is great for meal prep!

  7. 7

    I get the tenderloins instead of breast because they're smaller so they thaw/cook much faster and more evenly!
