Essential Tools
Air fryer: The air fryer is the core tool for this dish. When slow-roasting chicken, the air fryer can ensure that the chicken is heated evenly and baked to a crispy outside, tender inside, and juicy and delicious taste.
Kitchen paper: Used to absorb the moisture on the surface of chicken to prevent excessive moisture from affecting the taste during baking.
Aluminum foil: Used to wrap the easily burnt parts such as chicken tips to prevent scorching during the baking process.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Chicken not cleaned properly: Before cooking, be sure to carefully clean the chicken and remove any remaining feathers, excess fat and internal organs, etc.
Improper proportion of marinade: Too much or too little of seasonings such as salt, light soy sauce, new orleans marinadee, and honey will affect the taste of chicken. The proportion of marinade should be reasonably adjusted according to the amount of chicken and personal taste.
Insufficient marinating time: Generally speaking, the marinating time needs to be at least 30 minutes to 1 hour. It is best to marinate in advance overnight to make the chicken more flavorful.
Unreasonable temperature and time settings: Generally speaking, the baking temperature is between 180℃ and 200℃. The time is controlled at about 20 to 40 minutes according to the size and quantity of chicken. During the period, it can be adjusted appropriately according to the actual situation.
Not turning over the chicken during baking: It is recommended to turn over the chicken with food tongs about 10 to 15 minutes in the middle of baking to ensure that both sides can be baked golden and crispy.
Taking out immediately after baking: After baking, the chicken should be simmered in the air fryer for 2 to 3 minutes to make the chicken more tender and juicy by using the residual heat.
