Honey and Parmesan Chicken Slices in Air Fryer

Today, I invite you to my kitchen to prepare Honey and Parmesan Chicken Slices in Air Fryer. Whenever I have very little time and I crave a dinner that feels much richer and elaborate without complications, I immediately think of my air fryer as a lifeline.

The first time I made them, it was to test if the crust would come out nicely golden even without a pan. The air fryer did much more because it made them super light yet flavorful. The irresistible combination of sweet, salty, and crunchy in this recipe is always a hit.

This is one of those recipes that inevitably falls into the category of official dinner saviors. Let me know if you try them in the comments.

  • Preparation time: 10 Minutes
  • Portions: 2 people
  • Cooking methods: Air Frying
  • Cuisine: Italian
  • Seasonality: Autumn, Winter

Ingredients

  • 14 oz thick chicken breast slices
  • 2 tbsps honey
  • 3 tbsps grated Parmesan cheese
  • to taste extra virgin olive oil
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • to taste dried oregano

Tools

  • 1 Air Fryer
  • 1 Oil Sprayer
  • 1 Knife
  • 1 Cutting Board
  • 1 Plate

Preparation

I prepare the slices by taking them out of the fridge at least 40 minutes in advance to bring them to room temperature (in this case, I cut the chicken breast myself), so they do not suffer from thermal shock.

I spread honey on the surface of each slice, add grated Parmesan, and press it well to adhere. I flip the slice and do the same.

I preheat the air fryer for just a few minutes, place them inside the basket (preferably lined with perforated parchment paper), and season with salt, pepper, and extra virgin olive oil. I close and cook at 374°F for about 10 minutes, turning them halfway through and applying the same seasoning.

Once cooked, I serve my Honey and Parmesan Chicken Slices in Air Fryer directly on plates, piping hot.

Tips, Variations, and Storage

The chicken slices can be stored in the refrigerator for 1-2 days and can also be frozen. In both cases, remember to place them in an airtight container, preferably glass or ceramic.

For a fresher taste, add a few drops of lemon juice.
