Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Breast (Keto)
Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Breast is easy to make, juicy and delicious! All you need is chicken, spices, oil and your favorite keto barbecue sauce.
Equipment
- Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breast (about 3 breasts)
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3-4 tablespoons of your favorite keto BBQ sauce (I love Primal Kitchen's BBQ Sauce because it's unsweetened and keto friendly. Purchase Primal Kitchen's Unsweetened Classic BBQ Sauce HERE. Use code "frozenbananas" at checkout for a discount!)
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts into a bowl. Add avocado oil and spices. Massage all the chicken with your hands to make sure the the spices are evenly distributed.
- Lay the chicken into the air fryer basket to cook. Cook at 375 degrees F for 15-20 minutes. (Note that thicker pieces of chicken breast will take longer to cook than thinner ones.)
- If you have a smaller air fryer like me, don't cook more than 2 breasts at a time. You don't want to stack them on top of each other in the air fryer. They will not cook evenly.
- Once the chicken breasts are done cooking, spread about 1 tablespoon of BBQ over the top of each. Place them back into the air fryer to cook for 2 more minutes at 375 degrees F.
- Remove the cooked chicken from the air fryer. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing to let the juices redistribute inside.
