Ingredients:
- 1.5 lb chicken breast or cutlets, sliced into 1/2-inch thicknesses
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp paprika
Instructions:
- Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of 1/2 inch using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan, Panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, dried oregano, and paprika until a thick paste forms.
- Slather the paste mixture over the chicken, pressing firmly to ensure the crust adheres to the meat.
- Place the chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not crowded. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes.
- Flip the chicken halfway through the cooking time. Remove once the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest for 3 minutes before serving to lock in the juices.
