Tips:

- For best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size and thickness. This will help them cook evenly. - If you don't have an air fryer, you can grill the chicken breasts over medium heat on a lightly oiled grill pan. - To make sure the chicken breasts are cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). - Let the chicken breasts rest for a few minutes before slicing or serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful. - Season the chicken breasts with your favorite spices or herbs before cooking. This will add flavor and help to prevent the chicken from drying out. - Serve the grilled chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or salad.
