Tips

You can use chicken breast for this recipe too, just slice into thinner fillets before marinating.
Marinate the chicken overnight for the best flavor.
Make the cucumber salad in batches and store to use for any meal, as the flavors get even better the next days.
When air frying the chicken, keep an eye on it; if the sheet pan is not full, the chicken will cook in less time (approx. 12-13 mins); make sure you get a nice char.
To reheat, best to store the cucumbers separately as it’s served cold. Warm up the chicken and rice in a pan for a few minutes on low heat.
