Tips

  • Make sure to spray the chicken evenly with light cooking oil spray after coating, potato starch is the key to making the chicken extra crispy when air frying.
  • Flip the chicken once it’s half way cooked and give it another spray on any dry areas.
  • Use reduced salt soy sauce to ensure the sauce isn’t too salty - taste and adjust if needed to suit your liking.
