How To Make Air Fryer Healthy Buffalo Chicken

Start by making the sauce, over a small saucepan, over low heat, add the butter, when it’s melted, remove it from heat. Then mix in the hot sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire Sauce, salt, and black pepper. (and if you are adding the cayenne pepper, mix in as well)

Add your chicken to a large bowl, pour over the marinade, and then marinade for about 30 minutes.

Spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray, and then place the chicken into the basket. Set the temperature to 380 degrees F, air fryer setting, for 10-15 minutes.

Remove the chicken when the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F.

WHAT KIND OF HOT SAUCE FOR BUFFALO CHICKEN?

About 90% of the hot sauces sold in the United States grocery aisles are Frank’s Red Hot or a store brand.

I usually choose the Original choice of heat, but the other varieties you can use in this chicken are Frank’s Red Hot Chile Lime Hot Sauce or Hot Buffalo Sauce; either would work for this recipe.

This sauce was originally invested in Buffalo, New York, hence the name. They were first prepared in Anchor Bar, which has since become a landmark restaurant.

WHAT TEMPERATURE SHOULD CHICKEN BE COOKED TO IN THE OVEN?

If you want to make this dish in the oven, prepare as directed and then place the marinated chicken into a baking dish.

Place the baking dish into a preheated oven of 350 degrees F, for 25-30 minutes.
