Cooking fads come and go, but it looks like the Air Fryer is here to stay! Over 25 million air fryers were sold within the last 2 years alone, making it a must have kitchen appliance. The increased popularity is due to several factors: the increase in the number of home cooked meals since the start of the pandemic, affordability of the appliance, and the ability to make crispy “fried” foods with little to no oil.
One of the most popular reasons for using an air fryer is easier and faster food prep allowing you to get a meal on the table quick. Springer Mountain Farms has a great line of Fully Cooked, Gluten Free, frozen chicken products that are great for quick meals. We get emails, calls and social messages all the time asking for instructions on how to heat these products in the air fryer, so we decided to run a test on those items in the Springer Mountain Farms Kitchen!
Here are the results and recommended best method for heating each item in the air fryer:
