Ingredients

4 chicken breasts (Boneless, skinless work best; pat dry before marinating.)
0.5 lemon (Juiced)
3 tbsp olive oil
0.5 tbsp dried oregano
3 garlic (Minced)
0.75 tsp salt
0.5 tsp ground black pepper

Steps

1
Pat the chicken breasts dry before marinating, as suggested in the recipe tips.
2
In a medium mixing bowl large enough to hold the chicken, add the lemon juice, olive oil, dried oregano, minced garlic, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well until the marinade is uniform.
3
Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and turn them until each breast is coated on all sides.
4
Cover the bowl and marinate on the counter for 30 minutes, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
5
Set the Ninja air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the basket without overcrowding; cook in batches if needed.
6
Air-fry for 19 minutes, flipping the chicken breasts halfway through cooking.
7
Check the thickest part of a breast with an instant-read thermometer. It is done when it reaches 165°F (74°C); cooking time can vary with breast size.
8
Transfer the chicken to a plate or cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes.
9
Slice and serve.

Notes

The recipe notes that 19 minutes is a guide: thin breasts may cook in about 16 minutes and large ones may need about 21, so check the internal temperature. To reheat, warm gently in the air fryer at 350°F for 3–5 minutes, or serve sliced cold in salads; the source advises avoiding the microwave.
