For a flavorful twist on traditional fried chicken, try this garlic parmesan air fryer fried chicken recipe. Start by marinating the chicken pieces in a mixture of buttermilk, garlic, and herbs for at least 4 hours or overnight. In a separate bowl, combine breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create the coating. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and lightly spray the basket with cooking oil. Dip each chicken piece into the breadcrumb mixture, making sure to coat it evenly. Place the chicken in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd it. Cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy. Sprinkle with additional parmesan cheese and serve hot with a side of garlic aioli for a delicious and cheesy twist on fried chicken.
