Why Cook Frozen Foods in Air Fryer?
- Faster than using the oven or stovetop.
- Super convenient. Go straight from freezer to table, there’s no thawing and no prep work needed!
- Food turns out perfectly cooked. The air fryer gives you food that is deliciously crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
- With the air fryer, no oil (or almost none) is needed, so it’s a healthier choice than other methods.
Pro Tips
- Shake or flip the food halfway through the cooking time to ensure it is cooked evenly on both sides.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket or tray. It’s important to leave space between items so the air can circulate and cook foods evenly.
- Check for doneness using a digital meat thermometer to ensure the center is cooked through and safe to eat.
- Make sure the frozen items are separated and not stuck together. A big lump of frozen chicken breasts, for example, will not cook through if not separated.
