Everyone needs a no-fuss recipe in their repertoire. This air fryer Greek chicken is one to keep. It is flavourful, kid-approved, and takes minimal effort to prepare. I love to serve it with rice and a side of salad and plantain.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breasts
  • 1 Tablespoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • juice of half a Lemon juice (about 1½ Tablespoons)
  • ½ Tablespoon Garlic paste
  • ½ Tablespoon onion granules
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • zest of half a lemon
  • salt and pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    Cut the chicken breasts into similar bite sizes of about 1 inch, then add to a bowl.
