Notes
Try these air fryer french fries for a crispy, healthier french fries on the side.Air fryer chicken wings are amazingly crisp, and takes less time than the oven.Use broccoli florets that are cut/torn into roughly even-sized, very small pieces. Think mini-florets. The tiny, even pieces will result in quick cooking and even browning.We use garlic powder and onion powder in lieu of freshly chopped, as the freshly minced garlic can burn easily.Toss the broccoli florets together with seasonings in a bowl prior to transferring to air fryer basket. This allows all the nooks and crannies of the air fryer broccoli will be packed with flavor.Garnish with freshly grated parmesan cheese or a sprinkle of lemon juice, or even some lemon zest for bright flavors.
