How to air fry chicken nuggets

To air fry chicken nuggets, you can follow these simple steps:

Ingredients:

Chicken nuggets

Cooking spray or oil (optional, for extra crispiness)

Instructions:

Preheat your air fryer: Most air fryers have a temperature control, so preheat it to 375°F (190°C) for this recipe. Preheating helps ensure even cooking.

Arrange the chicken nuggets: Place the chicken nuggets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Be sure not to overcrowd the basket to allow for proper air circulation.

Optional: Lightly spray the chicken nuggets with cooking spray or brush them with a small amount of oil. This can help achieve a crispier texture, but it’s optional.

Cook the nuggets: Insert the basket into the preheated air fryer and set the timer for 8-12 minutes, depending on the size and thickness of the nuggets. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations for your specific air fryer model and adjust the cooking time as needed.

Flip halfway: About halfway through the cooking time (around 4-6 minutes), open the air fryer and flip the chicken nuggets. This helps ensure even cooking and browning on all sides.

Check for doneness: Check the internal temperature of the chicken nuggets with a meat thermometer. They should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure they are fully cooked.

Serve: Once the chicken nuggets are cooked through and have a golden brown, crispy exterior, remove them from the air fryer. Allow them to cool for a minute or two before serving.

Enjoy: Serve your air-fried chicken nuggets with your favorite dipping sauces.

Remember that cooking times may vary depending on your specific air fryer model and the brand of chicken nuggets you are using. It’s a good idea to monitor them closely, especially the first time you make them, to avoid overcooking. Enjoy your homemade, crispy chicken nuggets!
