Description

Air Fryer Honey Mustard Chicken is a delightful blend of sweet and tangy flavors, featuring crispy chicken with a juicy interior, perfect for any dinner table.


Ingredients

  • 🍗 Chicken Breasts: 4 pieces (about 1.5 lbs or 680 g)
  • 🍯 Honey: 1/4 cup (60 ml)
  • 🥫 Dijon Mustard: 1/4 cup (60 ml)
  • 🛢️ Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons (30 ml)
  • 🧄 Garlic Powder: 1 teaspoon (5 g)
  • 🧂 Salt: 1 teaspoon (5 g)
  • 🌶️ Black Pepper: 1/2 teaspoon (2 g)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by whisking together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
  2. Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
  4. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  5. Check the internal temperature of the chicken with a meat thermometer; it should reach 165°F (74°C). Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For best flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket for even cooking.
  • Always preheat the air fryer for optimal results.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken is cooked through.
  • Opt for high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Season the chicken lightly before cooking for enhanced taste.
