Air Fryer Korean Fried Chicken Tacos

Everyone loves Fried Chicken and Tacos, so today, I am combining the best of both worlds and making an Air Fryer Korean Fried Chicken Tacos!

This is a great and easy dinner and a great alternative for Taco Tuesday! Because who doesn’t love tortilla tacos. This is a spicy taco as it includes both gochujang and a Korean red pepper paste.

This is both a very quick meal and a kid-friendly meal. I love making tacos in my house, and they reheat so well, if you have any leftovers. Today, I used chicken thighs, but you can use any chicken meat. I find that chicken thighs are better to air fry with batter.
