Instructions

  1. Take leftover chicken nuggets out of the refrigerator and lightly spray with cooking spray or add a touch of oil for extra crispiness.
  2. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  3. Place chicken nuggets in the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Set the timer for 5-7 minutes.
