Instructions

  1. In a large bowl combine the diced chicken breast with lemon, salt, olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, grated cheese and breadcrumbs.
  2. Spray the air fryer basket with oil. In batches as needed, add the chicken to the air fryer basket in a single layer so it doesn’t overcrowd the basket and air fry at 400°F for 7 to 8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway.
  3. Meanwhile, in a salad bowl, combine the red onion with garlic, 1 teaspoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and black pepper to taste; let it sit about 5 to 8 minutes, so the flavor of the onion mellows.
  4. Add the cucumbers, avocado and toss. When ready to serve, toss in chopped lettuce and finish with the remaining olive oil and vinegar, taste for salt and pepper and adjust as needed.
