Tips for Cooking in the Air Fryer If you are new to cooking with an air fryer, then I have some tips for you! These will help to make sure that your air fryer chicken fajitas cook evenly and turn out delicious every time! Don’t Overcrowd the Basket: If you put too much food on top of one another in the air fryer then it won’t cook evenly! It will “steam” rather than bake your food and you will never get that delicious, charred edge on your meat. It’s better to do a few smaller batches (if you have a smaller air fryer) than try to crowd everything in at once. Make sure that you just have one layer on the bottom of the basket. Preheat: This step isn’t necessary but I like to do it so that my cooking time is perfect. If your air fryer has a preheat button then go ahead and use that. If it doesn’t, then while you are preparing your food, turn the air fryer on to 390 degrees fro about 3-4 minutes. Then, by the time you add your food in, the air fryer is all ready to go! Variations Change up these air fryer chicken fajitas by adding in different veggies or toppings! Here are some ideas that you can try to switch things up. Protein: If you are not a fan of chicken, try some steak instead! It’s super delicious and I love cooking steak bites in the air fryer. Veggies: This is where the possibilies are endless! Try adding in some purple onion, a few mushrooms or you can even add or take out certain bell peppers. I love orange bell peppers in this too! Toppings: Try topping your fajitas with some guacamole, salsa or sour cream. You can even switch out the flour tortilla for a corn tortilla if you are gluten free! How to Store Leftovers If you have leftover air fryer chicken fajitas then you are in luck! You can use your air fryer to heat those back up the next day and they will be as good as new! Storage: Once your fajitas have cooled off then place it in an airtight container in your fridge. It will last 3-5 days! Reheat: Put the leftover chicken fajitas in the air fryer and set it to 350 degrees. Cook for 3-5 minutes until it is heated through.
