Air Fryer Roast Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Pat the chicken dry all over, including inside the cavity, with paper towels.
• In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
• Rub the butter all over the breast side of the chicken, including under the skin of the breasts. Sprinkle the spice mixture all over the breast side of the chicken and rub to coat well. Tie the chicken legs together with kitchen twine.
• Place the chicken, breast-side down, in the air fryer and "fry" for 30 minutes. Carefully flip the chicken breast-side up and continue cooking for 20 minutes more, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
• Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Pat chicken dry, inside and out, with paper towels. Remove giblets, trim away any excess fat, and discard.
• Tie 4 sprigs rosemary, sage, and oregano together into an herb bundle with string. Bundle should be about 1/2-inch in diameter. Set aside.
• Combine salt and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon seasoning mixture inside the cavity of the chicken and place the herb bundle inside.
• Gently loosen the skin over the breasts and thighs. Insert 1 teaspoon butter and 1 sprig of rosemary beneath the skin of each breast and thigh. Using your fingertips, rub butter all over the skin of the chicken, and place any excess butter inside the cavity of the chicken.
• Sprinkle remaining seasoning mixture over the entire chicken. Place in the air fryer basket, breast-side down.
• Air-fry at 370 degrees F (180 degrees C) for 45 minutes. Using tongs, carefully flip the chicken, breast-side up, and continue to air-fry until skin is crisp and brown, 15 more minutes.
• Tent aluminum foil over the chicken and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of one of the thighs should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). If needed, return to the air fryer and cook in 5-minute increments until safe temperature is achieved.
• To serve, remove herb bundle and carve.
