Good morning, Will... sounds like a yummy dish and I suspect one can bake it just as easily.

Will, this air fryer chicken recipe sounds absolutely delicious! Lemon garlic parmesan? That's like, my favorite flavor combo ever. And in the air fryer? Super quick and easy! I bet the panko and parmesan crust gets nice and crispy. I'm already drooling just thinking about it. This is definitely going on my "to cook" list. Thanks for sharing!

Will Hamm - I don't have an Air Fryer but it sure sounds good! I'll bet it would also make a nice picnic lunch come summer or fall.
