Ingredients
  

Chicken
  • 454 g chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
Millet
  • 240 ml millet
  • 480 ml chicken broth (or water)
  • 15 ml olive oil
Seasonings
  • 1 cucchiaino garlic powder
  • 1 cucchiaino onion powder
  • 1 cucchiaino paprika
  • 1 cucchiaino salt
  • 0.5 cucchiaino black pepper
Vegetables
  • 240 ml mixed vegetables (frozen or fresh)

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

  1. Rinse millet under cold water until it runs clear. Drain well.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine millet and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F for 3 minutes.
  4. In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  5. Place the seasoned chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  6. After 12 minutes, add the mixed vegetables to the air fryer basket with the chicken. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
  7. Fluff the millet with a fork and serve on plates. Top with the air-fried chicken and vegetables.
