Sometimes, when you haven’t planned ahead, you get backed into a corner trying to make dinner with no thawed meat. If you have a bag of #FlashFrozen boneless, skinless chicken breasts in your freezer, you don’t have to #ThrowInTheTowel and call for a pizza. With your air fryer you can still salvage a quick and healthy dinner and look like you planned it all along.
Usually air frying thawed boneless chicken breasts at 375° F, takes about 13 minutes. When they are frozen I kick the temperature up and add 6 to 12 minutes, depending on the size and thickness of the breasts.
4 breasts fit in my Dash 6 quart air fryer, so I place them into the basket, set my temperature to 400° F and set the timer for 18 minutes.
Open the fryer at about 8 minutes to turn the breasts over (for even browning) and continue cooking. Check each chicken breast at about 14 minutes, by slicing into the thickest part of the breast, in order to ensure that is well-done. Mine weren’t quite done at 14 minutes, so I added another 4 minutes and they came out perfectly browned, juicy and ready to decide what to do with them.
I can shred the breasts and turn them into #ChickenTacos, cut the breasts into strips to top a #ChickenSalad, cut them into chunks and toss with some Buffalo sauce to eat as a snack, leave the breasts whole to serve alongside some vegetables for a healthy, low carb dinner, or leave them whole and make a #ChickenSandwich on grilled sourdough or a hamburger bun. Once the chicken is cooked, you’re limited only by what other ingredients you have on hand. #ThisGirlLovesToEat
