الفجر الباسم Air Fryer Baked Sweet Potato
Make a perfectly air fryer baked sweet potato cooked in less time than it would in the oven – fluffy in the center with crisp skin!
First off, this is the air fryer I have and love, and trust me after writing 2 air fryer cookbooks, I have tried a lot. I have the 7 quart, perfect for making a whole chicken.
What is healthier: baked sweet potato or baked potato?
Baked sweet potatoes and baked potatoes are both very healthy. If your goal is to add more fiber to your diet, then I’d go with a sweet potato. However, both types would be great additions to any diet. They both have a lot to offer:
Sweet potatoes have about 50% more fiber than a russet potato, but they have about the same amount of protein.
Sweet potatoes are loaded with more vitamins A and C than baked potatoes, while regular potatoes have more potassium and folate.Tips for the Perfect Air Fryer Baked Sweet Potatoes
Buy sweet potatoes that don’t have soft skin, wrinkles, cracks, or soft spots.
Store sweet potatoes in a cool, dry place for three to five weeks.
Pierce sweet potatoes all over with a fork before air frying.How long does it take to air fry sweet potatoes?
Sweet potatoes take about 35-45 minutes to cook at 370F degrees in the air fryer, which is less time than they take in the oven. How to Serve Baked Sweet Potatoes
There are so many ways to serve baked sweet potatoes. The simplest way to eat them is with butter (or coconut oil if you’re dairy-free) on top – a little goes a long way. Another easy option that’s calorie-free is to sprinkle on chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, or pumpkin spice.
You can also stuff sweet potatoes with different fillings. Some delicious ideas are these Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Stuffed Sweet Potatoes, Loaded Vegetarian Baked Sweet Potato, and Italian Stuffed Sweet Potatoes.
Air Fryer Fried Chicken
Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, Air Fryer Fried Chicken is the move if you want loads of texture and flavor without dealing with a pot of used oil and a greasy stovetop. It’s all of the yum with less of the fuss! The hardest thing about frying chicken in an air fryer is not eating the crunchy, golden skin before it hits the table.
Why Cook Chicken In An Air Fryer?
An air fryer is just a countertop convection oven with a cute name. It doesn’t actually fry food. Instead, it circulates hot air around whatever’s in the basket, creating a crispy outer layer while keeping the inside moist and tender. There’s no oil splatter all over your stove (or you), no grease-filled pot to scrub, and you only need a small fraction of the oil used in traditional frying. It’s the perfect vehicle for crispy chicken, and the results will absolutely blow your mind. What You Need To Air Fry Chicken
I butcher a whole chicken because it’s cheaper, but you can fry any kind of chicken you want: wings, breasts, or thighs. Here’s what you’ll need to make crispy Air Fryer Fried Chicken:
Chicken – this recipe is for 3 pounds of chicken. Use whatever combination you like. If your air fryer basket is small, it’s best to fry similar-sized pieces in batches.
Buttermilk– is the foundation of your brine. It tenderizes your chicken while also adding tanginess.
Spices – help build earthy flavor and soft heat. I use smoked paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and cayenne pepper. Feel free to substitute this mix with three tablespoons of your favorite spice blend.
Egg – helps the flour mixture stick to your chicken.
Flour– Helps to build the iconic crispy outer layer of fried chicken.
Corn Starch– helps deepen the color of the batter as it cooks and creates a crispy texture.
Baking Powder– Helps create an airy batter with loads of crispy nooks and crannies.
Oil Spray – you need oil to fry chicken, even in an air fryer. If you don’t have oil spray, put corn oil or vegetable oil in a spray bottle, and use that.How To Fry Chicken In An Air Fryer
For deep flavor and juicy, tender results, brine your chicken. Even a short thirty-minute dip will make a huge difference, but if you can, brine it for at least 2 hours.
Preheat the air fryer. Your air fryer is a countertop oven; like most ovens, you need to preheat it. You may not need to do so for every recipe, but for crispy chicken that’s cooked throughout, it’s a must.
When you’re ready to fry, shake off the excess brine and thoroughly dredge the chicken in seasoned flour mixed with cornstarch and baking soda. The last two ingredients will help crisp the skin.
Spray the floured chicken with enough oil to cover it completely, once before cooking and once mid-cook.
Use a lower temperature (300°F) to give the chicken time to cook without burning the batter, then increase the heat (400°F) to finish cooking the chicken and create a crispy, golden outer layer.
Cook the chicken to 160°F. The chicken will continue to cook after it’s out of the air fryer and that carry-over cooking will take you to the recommended 165°F.How Long Do I Air Fry Chicken?
Your cook time depends on the cuts of chicken used. The thicker the cut, the longer it takes to reach the required 165°F. Use a thermometer and pull the chicken once it hits 160°F. It will continue to cook outside of the air-fryer, and the temperature will reach 165°F. If you do not have a thermometer, cook the chicken until the juices run clear.
How To Reheat Air Fryer Fried Chicken
Try not to leave the chicken out at room temperature for longer than two hours. Harmful bacteria start to multiply soon after. Refrigerate fried chicken in an air-tight container for up to 3 days. Freeze it for up to 4 months, though the sooner you eat it, the tastier it will be. To reheat it, bring it up to room temperature. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F and cook the chicken until it’s steaming, about 5 minutes.
