For the chicken:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
For the salad:
4 cups romaine lettuce or mixed greens
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Instructions
1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes.
2. Season the chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Place chicken in the air fryer basket. Cook for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through. Internal temp should reach 165°F.
4. While the chicken cooks, prep the veggies and mix the dressing ingredients in a bowl.

Notes
You can customize this salad with your favorite vegetables or cheese.
Make extra dressing to keep in the fridge for later meals.
Chicken can also be grilled or baked if you don’t have an air fryer.
