Ingredients
  

  • 1 Large chicken breast cut through the middle to make 2 thin breasts, or 2 smaller chicken breasts pounded flat
  • 2 teaspoons Garlic salt
  • 2 teaspoons Paprika
  • 2 teaspoons Dried parsley
  • 100 g Cornflakes, crushed into smaller pieces
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ Romaine lettuce chopped
  • 2 brioche buns
  • 2-3 tablespoons store-bought Caesar salad dressing or homemade
  • 50 g Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions
 

Preparing the chicken

  • Start by seasoning each half of the chicken breast with ½ teaspoon of garlic salt, paprika, and dried parsley on both sides. Rub the seasonings in to ensure an even coating.

  • Place the coated chicken breasts in an air fryer at 185°C (365°F) for 11 minutes. Depending on the thickness of your chicken, you may need to cook a bit longer. Ensure the chicken is cooked through by cutting into it if needed.

Prepare the Other Ingredients

  • While the chicken is cooking, toast the brioche buns, chop the lettuce, and fry the bacon rashers to your desired level of crispness.

  • Once the chicken is done, top each breast with grated Parmesan. If you prefer melted cheese, return the chicken to the air fryer for an additional minute.
