What is an Air Fryer?

An air fryer is a small countertop convection oven designed to simulate deep frying without submerging the food in oil. A fan circulates hot air at high speed, producing a crisp layer via browning reactions.

Is Air fried food healthy?

Air-Frying May Be Healthier Than Deep-Frying

Air-fried foods may be healthier than deep-fried foods in several ways. They are lower in fat, calories and even some potentially harmful compounds that are found in traditionally fried foods.

How to Make Crispy Air Fryer Chicken:

Preheat Air Fryer to 190 degree or 390 degree F.
Massage chicken with the marination ingredients.
Now coat in breadcrumbs.
Pop it into the air fryer.
Cook till chicken is cooked.
Remove and set aside for 5 mins.
Remove and serve

Air Fryer Chicken Breasts

Cooking chicken breasts in the fryer is just as easy as cooking any other pieces, except that chicken breast can dry out faster. It’s better to use a batter-like my recipe to seal in the moisture. If you use skin off you can be prepared for dryer chicken, so if you don’t want to eat the skin simply cook the chicken breast with the skin on and then remove it before eating.

Prepare the skin-on chicken breasts in the batter according to the recipe
Cook the chicken breast in the Air Fryer for 25 minutes depending on how thick the chicken breasts are.
If you have large ones they will take longer.
