Equipment

  • Air Fryer I love my Ninja Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Italian Dressing Or Marinade of your Choice
  • 12 ounces Chicken Breasts About 3 large breasts.

Instructions

  • Make sure you pound your chicken to an even thickness and place in a ziplock bag or airtight container.
    12 ounces Chicken Breasts
  • Add Italian Dressing or marinade of choice and allow to marinate for 3-5 hours. You can leave it overnight, but be careful not to marinate for longer.
    1/2 cup Italian Dressing
  • Remove chicken from marinade and dry off with paper towels. Spray your air fryer basket with a little oil. Add Chicken Breast to basket in a single layer.
  • Air fry at 400 degrees for 14-17 minutes. This will depend greatly on the thickness of your chicken breast so I strongly encourage you to check them with an instant read thermometer.
