Notes
If using frozen chicken breast make sure you defrost them before cooking. I usually remove from the freezer and keep in the fridge section. And before cooking I leave in room temperature for 1 hours. It comes out perfect.
To check if the chicken is cooked you can also use an instant cooking thermometer and check if the temperature reads 165 F.
Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket for the chicken to cook evenly. also make sure we use even sized chicken breasts.
Always flip the chicken halfway to ensure even cooking.
