Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup bell peppers, sliced
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes while you prepare the ingredients.
- In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, bell peppers, and zucchini, then drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and dried Italian herbs. Toss to coat evenly.
- In another bowl, slice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and toss them with the remaining olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well coated.
- Add the chicken to the air fryer basket and cook for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- After 10 minutes, add the seasoned veggies to the basket with the chicken and continue cooking for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender and slightly charred.
- Once done, remove the basket from the air fryer and drizzle with fresh lemon juice before serving.
