    These air fryer frozen chicken fries are a quick and delicious snack. It is ready in under 15 minutes. So easy too.

    These chicken fries are delectable. I always have a pack in my freezer. You may like Tyson’s chicken fries. But really any good brand from the freezer section of your grocery store works fine.

    All you need to feed hungry tummies is to air fry these frozen chicken fries. No need to thaw. No messy deep frying. 

    To tell you the truth, since I got the air fryer, I barely ever deep fry.

    What are Chicken Fries?

    Just like French fries, chicken fries are made of chicken that is cut into the shape of French fries. It is then breaded for crunch.

    After cooking, these fries are succulent inside and crunchy outside. A delicious snack or starter.

    Ingredients

    Frozen Chicken Fries: I have used 1 lb. Or about 500 gm. Pack of frozen chicken fries.

    Air fryer: For air frying.

    That’s it. You need nothing else.

    Serving suggestions

    Snack or Appetiser: These chicken fries make for a perfect snack or appetiser. Serve them with dips of your choice.

    Main: I actually had them as is for dinner. But you can pair them with a vegetable salad for a more complete meal.

    Bowls: These go so well in bowls with sautéed veggies, pickles and some fried rice.

    Wraps or Sandwich: Do try them in a wrap or sandwich for a crunchy protein element along with mayo and veggies.

    Meal: Pair with air fryer French fries, tater tots, hash browns for a tasty crunchy meal.

    FAQs

    1. Which dip should I serve these chicken fries with?

    They go very well with Chipotle mayo, honey mustard or ketchup.

    2. Can we freeze these chicken fries?

    No. Once you have air fried the frozen fries, you cannot refreeze them.

    Ingredients

    1 Pack Chicken fries

    Instructions

    Take 1 lb. Or 500 gm. Pack of frozen chicken fries. You can get Tyson’s chicken fries if they are available in your area.

    Or you can pick any frozen chicken fries brand from the freezer section of your grocery store.

    A pack of frozen chicken fries

    Preheat air fryer at 180C or 360F for 5 minutes.

    Cut the packet and add chicken fries to the basket.

    There is no need to thaw these.

    Preferably avoid too much overlapping. A bit of overlapping is fine.

    Air fry for about 8 minutes at 180C or 360F till the chicken fries are browned and crunchy outside and cooked inside.

    I normally pick out one fry to check.

    If you want them crisper or browner, then you can air fry for a couple of minutes. But be watchful as we don’t want them to overcook.

    Take them out and serve hot with a dip of choice.

    Tips

    1. There is no need to thaw the fries. Just put them straight from the packet into preheated air fryer.

    2. You cannot refreeze these fries, have them fresh and hot. In case you wish to, you can store them in air tight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat them for 4-5 minutes in air fryer at 180C or 360F before consuming.

    3. Serve them with dips of choice. I love honey mustard dip, ketchup or Chipotle mayo with them.

    4. Do not overcrowd the basket. A bit of overlapping is fine.

    5. Every air fryer model is different so your air frying time may vary a bit.
