Airfryer Garlic Chicken (Oil-Free)

🍗 Airfryer Garlic Chicken: Healthy and Crispy Tradition

Garlic chicken is a staple of our gastronomy, but it traditionally requires a significant amount of oil. Thanks to air fryer technology, we can replicate that golden, crispy texture using just a drop of oil. The key to this recipe is the pre-marination, which allows the flavors of garlic and parsley to penetrate deep into the chicken fibers, keeping it incredibly juicy while the exterior becomes crunchy.

🌿 Why is it exceptionally healthy?

• Drastic Fat Reduction: By cooking with hot air, we eliminate excess calories from frying oil.
• Antiseptic Power of Garlic: Fresh garlic is a powerful ally of the immune system and helps regulate blood pressure.
• High-Quality Protein: Chicken provides essential amino acids needed for muscle repair.

👨‍🍳 Step-by-Step Preparation

1. Chopping: Cut 500g of chicken into uniform bite-sized pieces.
2. Marinating: Mix the chicken with 6 sliced garlic cloves, fresh parsley, salt, and a teaspoon of EVOO.
3. Resting: Let it rest for at least 20 minutes to absorb all the aromas.
4. Preheating: Set your Airfryer to 200°C for 3 minutes.
5. Cooking: Place the chicken in the basket. Cook for 15-18 minutes at 190°C.
6. Flipping: Shake the basket halfway through to ensure uniform browning.
