Prepare the breading station with seasoned flour, an egg, and panko breadcrumbs.

Coat the brined chicken breast in the flour, dip in the egg, and then coat with panko, using hands for even coverage.

6

Spray the coated chicken with a little oil and place it in the air fryer.

Air fry the chicken at 365 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway until golden brown.
