Air Fryer Roast Chicken

We love the air fryer for all sorts of items, but we love it best for cooking a whole chicken. The skin renders and gets perfectly crispy while the inside stays incredibly moist and flavourful.

Ingredients

Method

Step 1

Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 185 degrees celcius.

Step 2

Rub the outside of the chicken with the olive oil, then sprinkle the chicken inside and out with 1 tablespoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Fill the cavity with the herbs, garlic and lemon. Put the chicken in the air fryer basket breast-side up, pushing it down so it does not touch the top of the fryer.

Step 3

Roast the chicken until it is golden and crispy and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh, avoiding bone, reads 78 degrees C, 50 to 60 minutes.
