- 1 cup (120 g) panko bread crumbs
- 1 cup (240 ml) vegetable oil mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Divide the chicken breasts into two portions each.
- Use a meat mallet to flatten each piece to an even thickness.
- Season with a pinch of salt.
- Apply mayonnaise evenly on both sides of the chicken pieces.
- Combine the panko crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder in a bowl (omit panko for a keto version).

- Set the air fryer to a temperature of 390 degrees.
- Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer within the air fryer basket.
- Cook for a total of 15 minutes, flipping them over once after 10 minutes.
Notes
- Lightly coat the chicken pieces with cooking spray before air frying for a crispier coating.

- For a healthier alternative, bake the chicken in the oven at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes instead of air frying.
