Instructions
- Why it’s an issue: Crowding prevents even cooking, leaving some pieces undercooked or soggy.
- Solution: Cook in batches or ensure a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Using the Wrong Temperature
- Why it matters: Cooking at a temperature too high can dry out the chicken, while too low leaves it undercooked.
- Solution: Stick to 375°F (190°C) for juicy chicken and tender-crisp vegetables.
- Skipping the Preheat Step
- Why it’s important: Preheating ensures even cooking from the get-go.
