    • ½ teaspoon black pepper
    • 🧂 ¼ teaspoon salt

STEPS

1

Mix paprika, thyme, cumin, cayenne, onion powder, black pepper, and salt together in a bowl; transfer to a large plate.

2

Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Rub oil over each chicken breast until fully coated, then press into spice mixture until all sides are coated. Let sit for 5 minutes while the air fryer preheats. Place into the air fryer basket.
