Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 450 g chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 480 g pumpkin, peeled and cubed
  • 30 ml olive oil
  • 1 cucchiaino garlic powder
  • 1 cucchiaino paprika
  • 1 cucchiaino dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, pumpkin, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat evenly.
  3. Place the chicken and pumpkin mixture in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  4. Cook for 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  5. After 12 minutes, check for doneness. If the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and the pumpkin is tender, remove from the air fryer. If not, cook for an additional 3-5 minutes.
  6. Serve hot.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for 30 minutes in the olive oil and spices before cooking. Serve with a side salad or crusty bread for a complete meal.
