- 2 (8 ounce) bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves
- 1 tablespoon ground paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Keto Crispy Air-Fried Chicken Recipe Instructions
- Combine paprika, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, marjoram, sage, pepper, and nutmeg in a small bowl.
- Cut the chicken into tender style strips and rub the spice rub all over the chicken breasts, including beneath the skin.
- Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), as directed by the manufacturer. In a small dish, combine the coconut oil, sherry, and lime juice; put aside.
- Cook for 15 minutes with the chicken breast-side down in the air fryer basket.
- Brush the chicken with the remaining basting oil. Cook for another 15 minutes after flipping the chicken and lowering the heat to 360 degrees F (182 degrees C).
- Cook for another 6 to 12 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices flow clear. A thermometer near the bone should register 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees C).
