Air Fryer Chicken and Veggies Recipe


  • Author: Katherine

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (broccoli, bell peppers, carrots)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your chicken and veggies cook evenly and achieve a perfect texture.
  2. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. This step is crucial for infusing the chicken with flavor.
  3. In a bowl, toss mixed vegetables with olive oil and a pinch of salt. The olive oil helps the veggies to crisp up nicely while the salt enhances their natural flavors.
  4. Place chicken in the air fryer basket and cook for 10 minutes. This initial cooking allows the chicken to start browning and locking in juices.
  5. Add veggies to the basket and cook for another 8-10 minutes or until chicken is golden and veggies are tender. Keep an eye on the basket to ensure even cooking.
  6. Serve hot and enjoy! This dish is best served immediately to enjoy the perfect balance of crispy and tender textures.
