Easy Air Fryer Rotisserie Roasted Whole Chicken

Juicy and tender are the two words that describe this chicken. And this was done in under an hour. This is one of my favorites Easy Air Fryer Rotisserie Roasted Whole Chicken.

I will start by saying this is Air Fryer Rotisserie Roasted Chicken was fabulous. Words cannot describe it. It was one of the best things I have made in the air fryer to date.

I will be the first person to admit that I never really wanted to roast a chicken before until I had my air fryer. Not very exciting to make. But, since my kids are eating a ton these days, I thought I would try my hand at making my first roasted chicken in the air fryer.

And I should not have waited. My kids were grabbing the meat off the bones. All of the meat was moist and delicious. They loved the skin too, which is weird because they usually don’t eat the skin. This one had tons of flavor and had a tremendous crispy flavoring.

The size of the bird that you can cook will depend on how large your air fryer is. I have a 5 quart one, and my chicken was just over 3 pounds, and it fits wonderfully. You can season the chicken with anything. Today,  I went with a copycat recipe for homemade rotisserie chicken. The same one that you will find in Costco or your local supermarket.

How to Cook a Whole Chicken in an Air Fryer

1. Start by cleaning your chicken, remove the package of heart/gizzards, liver, etc. and run water through it until it comes out clean.
2. In a small bowl, mix all of the spices.
   Then rub the oil on one side of the chicken and the rub mixture. Then set the temperature to 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, flip, oil the side, and season the side, set for another 30 minutes.
   Chicken is done when it reaches 165 degrees F.
3. Let cool, slice, plate, and enjoy!

Set your chicken into the air fryer basket. Rub oil over it.

How Long to Cook/Cook Time

The timing of your chicken is really dependent on two things. How big your chicken is, and what air fryer you own. 

An average chicken will take about 40 to 60 minutes to cook. But the true indication of a cooked chicken is when the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees F. 

As I have said many times, one of the best investments is a meat thermometer. Always check the thickest part of your chicken to check the temperature. 

How Long To Rest Before Slicing

You should always allow the chicken to rest for about 10 to 15 minutes before serving your chicken up. 

This allows for your juices to run into the middle. This way, the center will be as juicy as the ends. 

Can You Reheat a Rotisserie Chicken

Yes, I often get a chicken at the local grocery store or Costco and rehat it for a quick meal during the week.

Add it to the basket, and then set the temperate to 350 degrees F for a few minutes until the chicken is heated through.

Can You Air Fry Frozen Chicken?

Yes, you can air fry any frozen chicken you want, including a whole frozen chicken. You could follow the same guidelines as a thawed chicken; some great tips are here.

Is the Air Fryer Really Healthy?

Yes, since you allow the hot air to perfectly crisp up your food, you use very little oil.

This saves you both calories and fat intake. An air fryer is a perfect appliance and a new cooking technique that can help anyone on a low-fat diet. 

Some Pro Recipe Tips:

• The most important part of roasting a chicken in the air fryer is to make sure it’s really seasoned well.
• Another important part would be to make sure you oiled it to get a juicy and delicious chicken dinner.
• Use a meat thermometer to make sure that the chicken is fully cooked before removing it from the air fryer.
