3 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Pat dry chicken breasts with paper towels and place in a large bowl. Pour the lemon garlic marinade over the chicken, and using tongs, toss until chicken is well coated.

Place chicken breasts in the air fryer basket, making sure they aren't touching. Cook for 10 minutes, flip the chicken over and cook for another 10 minutes or until the internal temperature in the thickest part of the chicken breast reaches 165°F.

Remove chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for 5 minutes before cutting into it and serving.
