Instructions

Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and trim broccoli into even florets.
In a large bowl, combine chicken and broccoli with olive oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Arrange the chicken and broccoli in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if needed.
Air fry at 400°F for 10–12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the broccoli is crisp-tender.
Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using. Serve hot.

Notes

Preheat the air fryer for crispier texture.
Use tamari or gluten-free soy sauce for a gluten-free version.
Add red pepper flakes or sriracha for heat.
