Description
This recipe for air-fryer pizza-stuffed chicken breasts fills them with pizza toppings like mozzarella, pepperoni, and sauce. You won't miss the crust.
Ingredients
•
2 (6 ounce) chicken breasts
•
2 teaspoons olive oil
•
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
•
1 teaspoon garlic salt
•
2 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese
•
1/4 cup sliced pepperoni
•
2 tablespoons minced onion
•
2 tablespoons pizza sauce
Directions
1
Preheat an air fryer to 380 degrees F (190 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
2
Lay a chicken breast flat onto your work surface; cut in half, lengthwise, leaving the breast attached on one side so it opens like a book. Repeat with remaining chicken breast.
3
Rub outsides of chicken breasts with oil; sprinkle with Italian seasoning and garlic salt.
4
Open each breast like a book; divide and stuff with mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, onion, and pizza sauce. Close each breast to enclose filling. Carefully transfer to the air fryer basket.
5
Air fry until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear according to manufacturer's directions, about 18 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
