Some Common Questions Asked About This Recipe

How long should you cook frozen chicken nuggets in an air fryer?

Start by preheating your air fryer to 400 degrees F, air fryer setting for 5 minutes, then place your frozen chicken nuggets in your air fryer basket. Do not crowd the basket. Otherwise, they will not cook correctly.

Set the timer for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket a few times during the cooking process.

How long do you cook Tyson chicken nuggets in the Air Fryer?

In the same way, usually for most frozen foods, I preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F and then air fry for about 10 to 12 minutes.

Shake the basket a few times during the cooking process, so all frozen chicken nuggets are cooked.

Wil Veggie Nuggets Work In the Air Fryer?

yes, they do really well in the air fryer, and they crisp up really nicely.

The cooking temperature will stay at 400 degrees F, but you will only need about 5 to 9 minutes. Shake the basket several times during the cooking process, so they all cook evenly.

Can you cook chicken nuggets and fries together in air fryer?

Yes, this will depend on the size of the air fryer you own. I usually put them all in my Omni Air Fryer, which has a large tray and air fry.

Since they need about the same cooking time, it works out perfectly. Just place the fries on one side and the frozen chicken nuggets on the other size, and use a pair of tongs to flip them frequently through the cooking process.

Remove them when done cooking.

Can You Stack Chicken Nuggets In the Air Fryer?

No, if you have them touching each other they will not cook evenly, or properly.

The way an air fryer works is it circulates hot air around the basket, causing the food to crisp up. If you have the food touching each other, it will not cook correctly.

Do You Need To Use Oil With These?

No, they will crisp up in the air fryer without any oil being used. Frozen foods do really well crisping up on their own.

What Sauce Can I Serve with Air Fryer Frozen Chicken Nuggets?

My kids love a good dipping sauce. I think most kids (and some adults) love to dip their food. Here are some of my favorites:

• Ketchup
• Raising Cane’s Sauce
• Homemade Honey Mustard Sauce
• Copycat Chick-Fil-A Sauce
