Ingredients

Instructions

  • Clean chicken and pat dry.
  • Sprinkle generously with dry rub or own seasonings.
  • Spray fry basket with cooking spray and place chicken into the basket with the legs facing down.
  • Roast chicken for 330 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes.
  • Flip chicken.
  • Roast for 20 more minutes at 330 degrees Fahrenheit or until internal temperature of chicken is 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Notes

  1. Ensure Even Coating: For optimal flavor and seasoning, ensure the dry rub or seasonings are evenly distributed over the entire surface of the chicken. Rub the seasoning mixture both on the outside and inside cavities of the chicken, ensuring every part is well seasoned.
  2. Check for Doneness: While the recommended cooking time and temperature provide a good guideline, it's essential to check the internal temperature of the chicken using a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit in the thickest part of the meat. This guarantees that the chicken is fully cooked and safe to eat.
  3. Let it Rest: After removing the chicken from the air fryer, allow it to rest for 5–10 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a juicier and more flavorful roast chicken.
