Chicken
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Vegetables
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, carrots, and broccoli)
Seasoning & Oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Prepare Chicken and Vegetables: Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts. Wash and chop the mixed vegetables into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
- Season Ingredients: In a large bowl, toss the chicken breasts and mixed vegetables with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until they are evenly coated with the seasoning.
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) to ensure a crispy finish.
- Air Fry: Place the seasoned chicken breasts and mixed vegetables in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 18-20 minutes, turning the chicken and stirring the vegetables halfway through cooking, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
- Serve: Remove from the air fryer and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm alongside the roasted vegetables.
Notes
- Use an instant-read thermometer to check chicken doneness for safety and juiciness.
- Feel free to swap vegetables based on seasonality or preference.
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the seasoning and olive oil for 30 minutes before cooking.
- Cooking times may vary slightly depending on your air fryer model and size of chicken breasts.
