Description
Cooking chicken sausage in an air fryer is a simple and delicious way to enjoy a healthier version of this popular dish.Â
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken sausages (pre-cooked or fresh, depending on preference)
- Olive oil spray (optional)
- Your choice of seasonings (optional, such as Italian seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, or simply salt and pepper)
Instructions
- reheat the Air Fryer: Start by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This step ensures that your chicken sausages will start cooking at the right temperature for a perfectly even cook.
- Prepare the Chicken Sausages: If you're using pre-cooked chicken sausages, you can proceed directly to cooking them. For fresh chicken sausages, ensure they are not frozen and lightly prick them with a fork to prevent them from bursting as they cook. Optionally, you can lightly spray or brush them with olive oil and season them according to your taste.
- Cook the Chicken Sausages: Place the chicken sausages in the air fryer basket, ensuring they're not touching to allow the air to circulate freely around them. Cook for about 10-12 minutes if they're pre-cooked or 15-20 minutes if they're fresh, turning them halfway through the cooking time. The exact time may vary depending on the size of the sausages and your air fryer model, so it's a good idea to start checking them a few minutes before they're supposed to be done.
Notes
Serve with hot dog buns of choice and some ketchup!
