5. Spray chicken breasts with cooking oil on all sides.
6. Sprinkle seasoning blend evenly over the chicken breasts and rub in on all sides.
7. Place 2 to 3 chicken breasts in the Air Fryer basket. Make sure that there's enough space between the breasts to ensure even cooking.
8. Cook at 375 F for 10 minutes.
9. Using tongs, flip chicken over and continue to cook for 5 to 6 more minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
