  3. Mix panko crumbs, garlic powder, salt, black pepper on a plate.

  4. Dip chicken in egg, covering the chicken completely with panko mixture.

  5. Place chicken breast into the air fryer basket. (We used air fryer parchment paper to prevent sticking, and Chicken WILL stick.)

  6. Cook at 380° F / 187° C for 10 minutes. Check the temperature with a meat thermometer, if the internal temp is below 165°F / 75°C; flip and cook the chicken for an additional 5 minutes.

    We really liked this – thanks for posting. It took quite a bit longer in my air fryer, but that could just be my air fryer. I don’t think I’ll use parchment next time – we didn’t like how soggy it made the bottom. Think I’ll try spraying cooking spray liberally – even if it sticks – it will be better than a soggy bottom . This helped me learn the basics of air frying chicken breast and now I can tweak a bit . Thanks very much
