Ingredients for Melt in Your Mouth Chicken in Air Fryer:
- One-half pound of skinless, boneless chicken breasts 3–4 breasts. For more consistent cooking, look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that weigh roughly the same. For melt-in-your-mouth appetisers, smaller portions like drumsticks or chicken thighs work well, but you’ll need to adjust the cooking time!
- cup mayonnaise. 1/2 cup Mayo’s mild flavour makes it an excellent foundation for sauces, rubs, and marinades. If preferred, you can replace or add Greek yogurt or sour cream to the mayonnaise.
- ⅓ cup shredded parmesan cheese. The chicken gets a lovely, browned appearance and a hint of tanginess from the parmesan cheese. For a different flavour, you can substitute finely crumbled feta or blue cheese for the parmesan.
