Mediterranean Chicken with Oranges and Olives #AirFryer

We are the happy owners of a Gourmia Air Fryer, and had this recipe in the small recipe book that came with the appliance.  (NOTE: for more recipes - visit this page).  We love this addition to our kitchen and think it really does a great job.  I found this recipe for chicken and we decided to give it a whirl.  Tweaked it a bit and loved the way it came out.  I do not have the nutritional information - but there is not much here that is bad for you.  We cooked this with roasted carrots and green beans for a great dinner.  Definitely make this again.  This makes 2-3 servings and does not take too long (outside the marinating time).  

Ingredients (2-3 portions)

1/2 cup Orange juice

2 tbsp Orange zest
1/4 cup White wine (or white cooking wine)

1 tbsp Olive oil
2 tsp (or cloves) Garlic, finely chopped
1 tsp Thyme, dried

1/2 tsp Kosher salt 

1/4 tsp Black pepper

1/4 tsp Fennel seeds

2 Chicken breasts (boneless & skinless) , sliced in half across to make four thinner pieces.

1 tbsp Olive oil
Kosher salt and ground pepper, to taste
1/2 cup Kalamata olives, sliced or chopped

1/4 cup Broth (chicken or vegetable)

Cooking spray

Directions

1. In a large bowl, mix together orange juice, orange zest, white wine, olive oil, garlic, thyme, Kosher salt, black pepper and fennel.  Remove half the marinade and reserve for later.

2. Add chicken to the bowl with the marinade and marinate for around one hour in the refrigerator.

3. After the hour is up, place paper towels on a large plate and pat the chicken dry.

4. Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees in "Air Fry mode"

5. When preheated, spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.  Arrange the chicken in a single level and cook for 15 minutes.  
6. While chicken cooks, add reserved marinade, olives and broth a small saucepan.

7. Bring sauce pan to a boil and lower heat to simmer for 10 minutes.  

8. When chicken is done, serve with the sauce.

Enjoy!
