Air fryer chicken cutlets are tender and juicy, and way better for you than deep-fried or baked. This is a healthy, low-fat option for chicken dinner.
What are the benefits of air frying chicken?
Air frying chicken offers a number of benefits over traditional cooking methods. Air frying involves cooking meat with a pan that is heated by air generated from a fan-like element underneath the food. This method of cooking is healthier than using oils, fats, or other liquids. In contrast to deep-frying, which can lead to more unnecessary calories and fat intake, air frying uses less oil and produces crispier skin on the chicken without compromising its tenderness. Recovering from an illness or surgery can be a trying time for patients. For this reason, people who are recovering need to be mindful of their diet and what they eat in order to heal up quickly and fully. With that in mind, it’s important for people recovering from illness or surgery to also be mindful of how much they consume while not exerting themselves.
What are some foods that can be cooked in an air fryer?
