Tips

  • Store coleslaw in a separate container and refrigerate to keep fresh and crisp for the week.
  • Rest chicken for 5 minutes after cooking before slicing into cubes and mix in all the resting juices.
  • Season fries with garlic and pepper only before cooking; add salt after cooking to prevent moisture release.
  • Reheat chicken and fries in an air fryer for 5 minutes at 190°C (375°F) for best results.
