Rub 12 oz chicken with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp garlic, 1/2 tsp paprika, and 1/2 tsp garlic powder.
Shape a foil sheet into a baking tray (like so), and place it in the air fryer. Place the seasoned chicken into the tray, and cook at 400°F for 15 minutes.
In the meantime, mix together 1/4 cup chicken broth, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tsp cornstarch, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tsp ginger, 1 tsp hoisin sauce, 1 tsp mirin, 1 1/2 tsp sriracha, 1/2 tsp brown sugar, and the remaining paprika (1/2 tsp.) Set aside.
Place 6 oz snow peas into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave on medium for 3 minutes. Carefully remove the wrap and shock them in cold water, to keep them crisp and green.
Once the chicken’s done, gently pour the sauce on top and cook for another 5 minutes at the same temperature.
Sprinkle on top 1 tbsp sesame and 2 tbsp chopped scallions. Serve with 3 cups of cooked rice and cooked snow peas.
