INSTRUCTIONS
Pound the Chicken Breast: Pound Chicken Breasts using a Meat Tenderiser so that it cooks evenly.
Brush Chicken Breasts with Olive Oil.
Coat Chicken Breasts with seasoning - In a deep dish, combine Onion Powder, Garlic powder, Salt, Pepper, Ground Cumin, and Cayenne Pepper. Coat both sides of the Chicken breast with the seasoning.
Air Fry Chicken Breasts: Place the Chicken Breasts in the Air Fryer basket. Cook @ 360°F(180°C), for 15 minutes. My chicken breasts were almost 1 inch thick. Therefore it took me 15 minutes to get them cooked. Flip after 7-8 minutes. Cook until the internal temperature of the Chicken reaches 165°F(78°C). Check using a Meat Thermometer.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.

Notes
Depending on the weight of your Chicken Breast, the cooking time will vary. An average 6oz breast will cook at 350°F for 12 minutes
Similarly, an 8oz breast will cook at 350°F for 15 minutes.
If your Meat Thermometer doesn't show 165°F at the mentioned time, then do the following-
Cover the Chicken loosely with foil and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. It will continue cooking, and the juices will seep into the meat. After 10 minutes, retake the temperature, and it should reach 165°F.
