Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
- 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 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
- While the air fryer is heating, cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
- Add the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and fresh lemon juice to the chicken pieces. Toss until the chicken is well coated.
- Next, add the broccoli, bell peppers, and zucchini to the bowl with the chicken, and toss everything together to ensure even seasoning.
- Transfer the chicken and vegetable mixture to the air fryer basket, spreading it out in an even layer to allow for even cooking.
- Air fry the mixture for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure everything cooks evenly and gets a nice crispiness.
- Once the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, remove the basket from the air fryer and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
