  6. Preheat the air fryer to 360° Fahrenheit for 3 minutes.
  7. Spray the chicken with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil.
  8. Place the chicken breasts into the air fryer in a single layer leaving room for air circulation. Cook for 9 minutes. Flip and cook another 9 minutes until the internal is at least 165° Fahrenheit.
  9. Remove from the air fryer and garnish with chopped parsley, optional, before serving.
