How to Make Air Fryer Chicken Parmesan

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat while maintaining texture.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has a high smoke point and is healthier.

bread crumbs

🥗Healthier: panko

💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Panko gives a lighter texture, while crushed crackers are often cheaper.

Coat the chicken breasts in flour, shaking off the excess.

Dip the floured chicken breasts into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are fully coated.

Top the chicken with spaghetti sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese.

Return to the air fryer until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
