Herbed Buttermilk Roast Chicken Breast

Herbed Buttermilk Roast Chicken Breast

Depending on the size of your air fryer, you might fit a whole chicken inside, but some are too small, so I wanted to give a roast chicken recipe that could work in every model and size of machine. Bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts are super flavorful and, in some cases, so large they might as well be a whole chicken. Here I cover them with a spice mix inspired by dry ranch-style seasoning, suffusing the chicken skin with tons of dried herbs and umami-packed onion and garlic. Serve up the chicken in thick slices like a roast chicken or refrigerate and tear it into pieces for chicken salad (the chicken is preseasoned and only needs a little mayonnaise to hold it together).

Ingrediënten

  • 1 large bone-in skin-on chicken breast (1¼ to 1½ pounds)
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1½ teaspoons dried parsley
  • 1½ teaspoons dried chives
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon dried dill
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon dried tarragon
  • Cooking spray

Instructies

  • Place the chicken breast in a bowl and pour over the buttermilk, turning the chicken in it to make sure it’s completely covered.
  • Let the chicken stand at room temperature for at least 20 minutes or in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours.
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl, stir together the parsley, chives, salt, dill, onion powder, garlic powder, and tarragon.
  • Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off, then place skin-side up directly in the air fryer.
  • Sprinkle the seasoning mix all over the top of the chicken breast, then let stand until the herb mix soaks into the buttermilk, at least 5 minutes.
  • Spray the top of the chicken with cooking spray.
  • Cook at 300°F for 10 minutes, then increase the heat to 350°F and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reads 160°F and the chicken is deep golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken breast to a cutting board, let rest for 10 minutes, then cut the meat off the bone and cut into thick slices for serving.
