Depending on the size of your chicken breasts, you may be able to slice more than two cutlets per breast. The chicken cutlets used in these photos were about 6 ounces each.
If your cutlets are larger, You may need to cook them longer, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each piece of chicken reads 165°F/74°C.
Don't try to air fry breaded chicken breasts that haven't been sliced thinly. The breading will burn before the chicken has time to cook through.
