Ingredients
  

Chicken Marinade
  • 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts about 1 pound total
  • 1 cup cooked buckwheat
  • 2 cucchiaio olive oil
  • 1 cucchiaino garlic powder
  • 1 cucchiaino smoked paprika
  • 1 cucchiaino dried oregano
  • 1 cucchiaino salt to taste
  • 1 cucchiaino pepper to taste
  • 10 g fresh parsley for garnish, optional

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
  3. Coat the chicken breasts in the marinade, ensuring they are well covered. Let them marinate for at least 5 minutes.
  4. Place the marinated chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  5. Cook the chicken for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time.
  6. Check for doneness; the internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C). If needed, cook for an additional 2-5 minutes.
  7. While the chicken is cooking, warm the cooked buckwheat in a small pot or microwave.
  8. Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  9. Serve the sliced chicken over a bed of warm buckwheat and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
