Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 chicken breasts (6 - 8 ounces each, skinless and boneless)
⅓ cup buffalo sauce*
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
Avocado or olive oil cooking spray
⅓ cup Frank's Red Hot Sauce
1 Tbsp melted butter or ghee
½ tsp paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat air fryer to 380°F and lightly grease basket with cooking or avocado spray.
  • Meanwhile, pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and then place a shallow bowl.
  • Pour the buffalo sauce on top and use kitchen tongs to flip chicken breasts to ensure they are completely coated. Season with salt and pepper and let marinate for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Once the air fryer is heated, evenly space out the chicken breast into the basket, breast side down (the smooth side).
  • Air fry for 10 minutes, then with kitchen tongs and cook for another 4 - 6 minutes. I used medium 7-ounce chicken breasts and cooked for a total of 15 minutes. They will be done once the internal temp reaches 165°F and the outside is crisp. DO NOT overcook, it will be dry.
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.
  • Drizzle with extra buffalo sauce and enjoy with a side of your favorite grain and vegetable.
