Ingredients

  • 12 frozen chicken nuggets

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F / 200 degrees C.
  • Place the nuggets on one side of the air fryer basket and the fries on the other side. Try not to overlap anything.
  • Cook for 12-15 minutes giving everything a turn halfway through the cooking time.

Notes

  • Don’t crowd the basket of the air fryer. You need to leave space between each chicken nugget so they get crispy. Don’t overlap them.
  • No extra oil is needed for this recipe. 
  • Cooking times can vary between brands of nuggets so be flexible as you cook until you become familiar with the time needed for your favorite brand. 
  • Preheat your air fryer. Everything will cook more evenly.
  • There are 10 Blue Plan SmartPoints in one serving of these.
