Ingredients
•
1 (8 ounce) package spaghetti

•
1/2 (8 ounce) can marinara sauce

Directions
1
Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 5 minutes.
2
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.

Meanwhile, set 2 chicken fillets into the air fryer basket.

Air fry chicken fillets for 6 minutes. Flip fillets over and cook for 6 minutes on the other side. Spread marinara sauce over fillets. Top each fillet with mozzarella slices. Air fry until cheese is melted, about 3 more minutes.
