Spicy Chicken Jerky In The Air Fryer Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 375°. In a large bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients. Add chicken and turn to coat. Refrigerate, covered, 1 hour or overnight., Drain chicken, discarding marinade. Combine remaining ingredients in a shallow dish and stir to combine. Add chicken, 1 piece at a time, and turn to coat. Place in a single layer on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until a thermometer reads 170°, about 20 minutes, turning halfway through cooking. Return all chicken to air fryer and cook to heat through, 2-3 minutes longer.

• Cut chicken with the grain into very thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick, while still mostly frozen.

Place chicken strips in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade over the meat and toss to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.

• Place chicken strips on the rack as close together as possible without having them touch.
• Bake in the preheated oven, flipping halfway, until each piece is a uniform dark orange color and dry inside when cut in half, 4 to 5 hours total.

• Let the chicken rest while you make the BBQ sauce: Place the brown sugar, scallions, garlic, ginger, jalapeños, soy sauce, lime juice, tamarind paste, vinegar, cinnamon, thyme, salt and pepper in a food processor and add 1/2 cup water. Pulse until well blended, making sure the ginger is incorporated. Transfer to a small saucepan and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes to meld the flavors, stirring every few minutes.
• Place the chicken, skin side down, in the prepared basket, making sure the pieces don't touch (cook the chicken in batches if necessary). Cook for 12 minutes.
• Remove the basket from the fryer, flip the chicken with tongs, and baste with BBQ sauce. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of a thigh reads 165 degrees, about 12 minutes more. Serve the remainder of the BBQ sauce on the side with the finished chicken.
