Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken breasts and turn to coat. Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
Preheat the air fryer to 360°F (182°C) for 3–5 minutes.
Arrange the marinated chicken breasts in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding.
Cook for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through, and start checking for doneness at 12 minutes.
The chicken is done when it reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove and let rest for 3–5 minutes before slicing.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider making a quick sauce with the marinade after cooking or adding herbs to the marinade.
