Ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: blue cheese or ranch dressing for serving
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for a few minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix together the buffalo sauce, melted butter, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined. Set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Dip each chicken breast into the buffalo sauce mixture, making sure to coat both sides thoroughly.
- Place the coated chicken breasts in the preheated air fryer basket in a single layer. Make sure there is enough space between them for proper air circulation.
- Cook the chicken breasts in the air fryer for about 15-18 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. The exact cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) to ensure they are fully cooked.
