Say goodbye to boring weeknight dinners and hello to this delicious and easy Air Fryer Chicken Parmesan recipe. Perfectly crispy chicken, melted cheese, and tangy marinara sauce - all in just 15 minutes! Get ready to satisfy your Italian cravings in a snap.
Prepare three shallow dishes. In the first dish, combine the flour, salt, and pepper.
In the second dish, whisk the eggs.
In the third dish, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, Italian-style breadcrumbs, garlic powder, and 1/2 cup of the grated parmesan cheese.
Coat each chicken breast in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally roll in the breadcrumb mixture until well coated. Set aside.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
Carefully place the breaded chicken breasts in the air fryer and spray with cooking spray or brush with cooking oil.
Air fry for 5 minutes, then flip and spray or brush with cooking oil. Air fry for an additional 5 minutes.
Spread marinara sauce over each chicken breast, then top each with two slices of mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese on top.
Air fry for 2 to 3 more minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the chicken is fully cooked.
