Some Common Questions About This Recipe-
How long should I cook the chicken for?
Since every air fryer is different and will cook at different times, the best thing is to use a meat thermometer and make sure the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. Before removing from the air fryer.
Do You Have To Flip The Chicken in the Air Fryer?
Yes, always. Why do you ask? Because it helps to get the food cooked perfectly both back an front. This is one of the best reasons to spray your air fryer basket or tray with olive oil, so when you do flip the chicken, the coating (if using) will not stick.
Can You Put Raw Chicken in the Air Fryer?
Yes. All raw food can go into the air fryer. Just make sure the meat thermometer is used, to ensure that the chicken is fully cooked.
How To Make This Chicken Dish Ahead of Time.
This is really easy, of course you make these ahead of time. That makes for a great meal prep meal. Simply,
