The combinations in this Air Fryer Greek Style Chicken Traybake are SO good, with plenty of summer vibes and Mediterranean flavours..

As with all my air fryer recipes, here we’re simply throwing our ingredients in together (there are just 5!) and the results give us a perfectly cooked light dinner or a prepped lunch for another day.

Why you’ll love this Air Fryer Greek Chicken recipe

⭐️ Just 5 simple ingredients

⭐️ Delicious meal prep lunch or simple dinner

⭐️ Zero fuss, quick and easy

How we came up with this recipe

Air fryers work best when they can make something that we don’t have to then switch our ovens or hobs on for – and I am SO here for this traybake for this very reason.

For this summery all-in-one dish, we can feed a family of 4 from one air fryer in the space of 25 minutes.

Simply serve it up with some microwave rice or Greek flatbreads, and perhaps some Greek Salad. Dinner (or tomorrow’s lunch) DONE.

Air Fryer Greek Chicken Ingredients Notes

  • Chicken breast – Dice about 4 chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
  • Veggies – I love the combination of courgettes and red onion for this recipe, but feel free to substitute for whatever you have in
  • Feta – This goes in for the last 5 minutes of cooking time and melts and crisps up slightly at the same time
  • Dried oregano – This gives a lovely seasoning to the whole dish

Substitutions

  • To make vegetarian – You can swap the chicken for a vegetarian/vegan protein option too, adjust your cook times as required

Top tipS

My air fryer

The one in these photos is a Russell Hobbs XXL one.

I’ve tested 3 air fryers now, and while I’m not saying that this one is THE BEST EVER, I’m really happy with it. It’s easy to fit in the dishwasher, not too expensive and has a basket large enough for 4 people.

Timing

I cook this in my air fryer for 20 minutes initially, then another 5 with the feta on top, but the exact number of minutes it takes will depend on your machine, the size of your chicken chunks and whether you’re using breast or thigh meat.

Garlicky chicken

If you like your traybakes with garlic, you can add this additional ingredient if you like. Go for 4 cloves, peeled and crushed, OR the equivalent in a paste if you prefer this.
