Parmesan Air Fryer Chicken Cutlets
by: claire cary
These parmesan air fryer chicken cutlets are the perfect base recipe to add to salads, pastas, sandwiches and more. They're gluten free, easy to make and much healthier than their deep fried counterpart!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breasts
- 2 eggs
- ⅓ cup gluten free breadcrumbs
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 380 Fahrenheit.
- Cut your chicken breasts in half width wise so you end up with 4 thin breasts.
- Whisk up the eggs in a shallow bowl.
- In a second shallow bowl, add the breadcrumbs, parmesan, salt, pepper and spices.
- Dip each chicken breast in the egg mixture, then into the breadcrumb mixture until well coated on both sides.
- Add to your air fryer basket and cook in a single layer. You may need to do 2 batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Spray lightly with an oil spray or brush with a bit of olive oil.
- Air fry for 15 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 Fahrenheit. Flip halfway.
- Serve with pasta, salads, veggies, rice etc!
Notes
I of course used gluten free breadcrumbs, but if you are not gluten free, regular breadcrumbs are fine. I suggest plain - not Italian- since we're adding our own seasoning.
