Description

Air Fryer Frozen Tyson Popcorn Chicken –Popcorn Chicken Air Fryer is amazing! My kids had a batch of it today for lunch; it is so good!

Ingredients 

  • 12 ounces popcorn chicken, Tyson Frozen Popcorn Chicken

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This step ensures that the chicken cooks evenly and becomes crispy.
  • If you choose, lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking. This is optional as the chicken already contains oil from the breading.
  • Place the frozen Tyson Popcorn Chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure the chicken pieces cook evenly and get crispy.
  • You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  • Air fry the chicken for about 7-8 minutes. Then, shake the basket or use tongs to turn the chicken pieces for even cooking.
  • Continue to cook for another 7-8 minutes until the chicken is golden brown and heated through. The total cooking time should be around 15-16 minutes, but you should adjust based on your air fryer model and the size of the chicken pieces.
  • Ensure the chicken is cooked through. The pieces should be crispy on the outside and piping hot inside.
  • Serve the popcorn chicken hot, with your choice of dipping sauces such as barbecue, honey mustard, or ranch.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
