ByStuart Melling

  4. Flip chick’n nuggets after four minutes

We used the COSORI to air fry this (affiliate link, we get a fee), always check your food with a good kitchen thermometer.

These faux-chicken nuggets are easy and mess free in the air fryer – not to mention fun and flavorful! The finish from the air fryer is a thunderously crust exterior with a soft interior. Use a fat free cooking spray like PAM as well, and they’re infinitely healthier than the regular pan frying method.

We love to enjoy these nuggets over an Asian inspired salad!

Hi, I’m Stuart, nice to meet you!  I’m the founder, writer and wrangler at Gastronomic SLC - Utah's biggest and oldest online food magazine; I’m also a former restaurant critic of more than five years, working for the Salt Lake Tribune.  I’ve worked extensively with a variety of national and local publications, not least helped to consult on national TV shows.

I’m a multiple-award winning journalist and have covered the Utah dining scene for the better part of fifteen years.   I’m largely fueled by a critical obsession with rice, alliteration and the use of big words I don’t understand.  

I'm also a huge fan of the air fryer, obsessively so. On a daily basis I am always asking myself, "can I air fry this". I started Air Fry Guide as a way to catalogue my own adventures in air frying, in the hope it helps others.
