Tender chicken breasts are coated in a crunchy seasoned breadcrumb coating before being air fried to perfection with just a fraction of the oil used in traditional frying. Ready in under 20 minutes, it's perfect for busy weeknights and pairs beautifully with everything from crispy air fryer chips and salad to buttery new potatoes or creamy mash. Simple, satisfying and guaranteed to become a regular on your meal plan, this is comfort food made lighter without compromising on that irresistible crunch.
