Preheat the Air Fryer: Begin by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This step ensures the chicken starts cooking immediately and gets crispy.

Prepare the Chicken: Place the frozen orange chicken pieces in the air fryer basket. Spread them out in a single layer for even cooking. There's no need to thaw the chicken first.

Cook the Chicken: Cook the chicken for about 18-20 minutes. Halfway through the cooking time, shake the basket or use tongs to turn the pieces, ensuring all sides get evenly crispy.

Heat the Sauce: While the chicken is cooking, heat the orange sauce that comes with the frozen chicken. You can do this in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave, following the package instructions.

Combine Chicken and Sauce: Once the chicken is cooked and crispy, transfer it to a bowl. Pour the heated orange sauce over the chicken and toss gently to ensure all the pieces are evenly coated with the sauce.

Serve: Serve your Air Fryer Frozen Orange Chicken hot. It pairs wonderfully with steamed rice or vegetables for a complete meal.
