Air Fryer Chicken and Vegetables

Air fryers are a convenient way to prepare a variety of dishes, including chicken and vegetables. Here’s a simple recipe for air fryer chicken and vegetables:

Ingredients:

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 cups of mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, carrots, or broccoli)
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon of paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for a few minutes.
2. Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
3. Add the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the chicken. Mix well until the chicken is coated evenly with the seasonings.
4. In a separate bowl, toss the mixed vegetables with a little bit of olive oil and season them with salt and pepper.
5. Place the chicken pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure proper air circulation. Cook the chicken for about 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
6. After the chicken has cooked for about 5 minutes, add the seasoned vegetables to the air fryer basket alongside the chicken. Cook them together for the remaining 7-10 minutes or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
7. Once the chicken and vegetables are cooked, remove them from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes.
8. Serve the air fryer chicken and vegetables together as a delicious and healthy meal.

Feel free to adjust the seasonings or cooking time according to your preferences and the size of your air fryer. Enjoy your air fryer chicken and vegetables!
