- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 375 degrees F.
- Pound out the chicken breasts to an even thickness (if the chicken is very thick) and pat them dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, mix together Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, paprika and black pepper.
- Brush both sides of chicken with olive oil and sprinkle evenly with spice mix, pressing gently so it sticks.
- Place chicken in a single layer in the basket of the air fryer (don’t overlap) and cook for 10 minutes. Flip chicken and cook for an additional 6 to 10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F using a meat thermometer and juices run clear.
