Top Tips For Making

• We like our chicken seasoned simply (trust us, it’s still delicious), but you can use different seasonings for your own customized air fryer chicken.
• If you haven’t already, we highly recommend investing in a digital meat thermometer. It makes cooking this recipe (and so many others) that much easier.
• If you don’t have an air fryer, check out my Easy Sous Vide Chicken Breast Recipe and Best Ever Easy Roast Chicken (you can omit the gravy on the latter if you don’t have all the ingredients).
