Hands down, my favorite way ever to make fried chicken!

Variations & Tips

– For an extra crisp coating, you can double-dredge the chicken by dipping it back into the buttermilk and flour mixture a second time.

– Consider adding different spices to the flour mixture to change up the flavor profile. A pinch of cayenne pepper adds heat, while a bit of dried sage can give an earthy note.

– To ensure even cooking and a crisp exterior, avoid overcrowding the chicken in the air fryer. Air flow is key in air frying cooking technique.

– Leftovers store well in the refrigerator and can be reheated in the air fryer for a few minutes to maintain crispiness.
