  • Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes. Or you can skip the marination process if you don’t have enough time. However, I like to marinate the chicken before I air fry them.
  • Preheat your air fryer at 200C/400F for 5 minutes.
  • Spray/brush a generous amount of oil on the air fryer basket. Place the seasoned chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Don’t overcrowd the basket.
