The air fryer is one of the best tools you have in your kitchen for making delicious chicken recipes in a flash. I use my air fryer almost every day to make simple, tasty meals in so much less time than I used to spend using the oven.
Chicken is one of my favorite proteins to cook with because it’s so versatile. You can do so many things with chicken breast or thighs, and if you like chicken wings, you’re going to love all the variations you can make. Try one of these air fryer chicken recipes below and you’ll see why I love it so much.

Why Use an Air Fryer
An air fryer is an incredibly easy way to cook just about anything. You place the food in a fryer-style basket and hot air rapidly circulates all around the food, making the food crisp – much like deep-frying, but without the oil. You can cook anything you’d make in the oven.

What Side Dishes to Serve?
There are some really easy side dishes you can serve with your main dish cooked in the Air Fryer. In some cases, you can even cook them together in the air fryer to make it even faster.
Some of our favorite side dishes to serve include air fryer cauliflower, brussels sprouts, and corn on the cob. We love these crispy smashed potatoes and cottage fries because they go with just about anything. Other quick options are to make a side garden salad or some macaroni and cheese.
