1
In a large bowl, dissolve 1/4 cup kosher salt in lukewarm water. Add the chicken breasts and let them brine for at least 1 1/2 hours or up to 6 hours.
2
Remove the chicken breasts from the water, pat dry with paper towels, and discard the brining water.
3
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper to create the seasoning mix.
4
Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil, ensuring they're fully coated, and then rub the seasoning mix evenly over each piece.
5
Preheat the air fryer to 380°F.
6
Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the air fryer basket, being careful not to overcrowd the basket. Cook in batches if necessary.
7
Air fry the chicken for 10 minutes at 380°F, turning halfway, until the chicken is browned on the outside and cooked through. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F with a meat thermometer.
