Balsamic Air Fryer Chicken Breast
Chicken breasts marinated in balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and soy sauce, then cooked in the air fryer until juicy and lightly caramelized.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 to 8 oz each)
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tsp dried rosemary crushed
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
Instructions
Cooking
- Whisk the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar, salt, pepper, rosemary, garlic powder, and onion powder in a shallow baking dish until the sugar dissolves.
- Add the chicken and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
- Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees F for 5 minutes.
- Lift the chicken from the marinade, let the extra drip off, and discard the marinade. Place the chicken in a single layer in the basket and cook for 16 to 20 minutes, turning after 10 minutes, until the thickest part reads 165 degrees F.
- Rest the chicken on a cutting board for 5 minutes, then slice and serve.
Notes
Discard the leftover marinade. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days and reheat in the air fryer at 350 degrees F for about 3 to 4 minutes. Nutrition is an estimate and counts only part of the marinade.
