Dinner dilemma? Staring at a rock-hard chicken breast in the freezer and wondering, "Can you put frozen chicken in an air fryer?" The answer is a resounding YES! Your air fryer is about to become your new best friend for quick and easy meals.
Forget defrosting! Air frying frozen chicken is not only possible, but it can actually be surprisingly delicious. The key is to use moderate heat (around 360-380°F) and flip the chicken halfway through. This ensures even cooking and prevents burning. Season generously! Because the chicken is frozen, it needs a little extra help in the flavor department. Think garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper – get creative!
Cooking times will vary depending on the thickness of your chicken, but generally, you're looking at around 20-30 minutes. Always use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F for safe consumption. Air frying frozen chicken is a game-changer. Enjoy a delicious and convenient meal with minimal effort!
