The Italian Kitchen: Margherita Chicken

This recipe is inspired by the Margherita chicken recipe from Olive Garden, one of my favorites. The chicken was completely cooked in the Ninja Crispi.

The ingredients:
Chicken breast
Oil
Kinder blend seasoning
Italian seasoning
1 TBSP pesto per chicken breast
Cherry tomatoes halved
Mozzarella cheese shredded

The recipe:
In a ziploc bag, combine chicken, oil, and seasonings rub around and allow to marinate. 
In the Ninja crispi, add the chicken bottom up air fry for 10 minutes. 
Flip the chicken then add the pesto and rub it around the top, and top with the cherry tomatoes.
Air fry for an additional 5 minutes.
Top with the mozzarella, then air fry for an additional 5 minutes or cheese is melted and browned on top. 

Notes:
You can bake this is would do 350-400 degrees but timing might be different.

Depending on your air fryer the timing may be different.
