## Tips

- You can use chicken breast for this recipe too, just slice into thinner fillets before marinating.
- Marinate the chicken overnight for the best flavour.
- Make the cucumber salad in batches and store to use for any meal, as the flavours get even better the next days.
- When air frying the chicken, keep an eye on it; if your sheet pan is not full, the chicken will cook in less time (approx 12-13mins).
- 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 mins on low heat.
