1¼ lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp dried Italian seasoning
½ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup finely grated Parmesan
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

5 steps

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes, or according to the manufacturer's directions.
Pat chicken pieces dry and toss with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if needed.
Air fry for 10 to 12 minutes, shaking halfway through, until the thickest pieces reach 165°F on a food thermometer.
Transfer to a bowl, immediately toss with the Parmesan and parsley, and serve while warm.

Cooking note: Cooking times are estimates. Follow safe food-handling practices, check doneness with a food thermometer when appropriate, and always review ingredients for allergens.
