This air fryer chicken parmesan can be used in a few delicious ways:
- Chicken Parm Sandwich – Add the chicken onto toasted ciabatta bread with some arugula (tossed in lemon juice and olive oil) and some sautéed green pepper slices. Add extra marinara sauce on the bread!
- Chicken Parmesan over pasta – Try the chicken parmesan over your favorite pasta with marinara sauce.
Air Fryer Chicken Parmesan
Ingredients
Directions
-
Preheat your air fryer to 375 F.
-
Whisk the egg in one shallow bowl with salt and pepper to taste. Combine panko breadcrumbs, grated parmesan, dried spices, and salt and pepper to taste.
-
Dip chicken breasts into egg first, then into panko breadcrumb mixture. Ensure you press the panko into the chicken all over.
-
Place breaded chicken carefully into the air fryer basket. Use a silicone brush to dab olive oil onto the top of the chicken pieces. This will help to crisp up the chicken.
-
Cook at 375 for about 6 or 7 minutes until the top is golden brown. Flip the chicken over. Brush on olive oil on the top. Cook another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown on the other side.
-
Now it's time to add the sauce and cheese! Spoon over 2 tbsp of marinara sauce per piece of chicken. Add the slice of provolone cheese on top.
-
Put the chicken back in for about 2 minutes until the cheese is golden brown.
-
Enjoy! See post above for my favorite serving suggestions.
Notes
*I like provolone cheese but mozzarella would be equally delicious!
