Equipment

  • 1 air fryer

Ingredients

  • 1-2 pieces chicken precooked, bone in or boneless
  • olive oil a spray if you want it crispier

Instructions

  • Preheat machine to 375 degrees (if you only have even temps set to 380).
  • Spray some oil on the outside of the skin to help it crisp up a bit during reheating. Since you're only heating up the chicken you don't have to worry about the internal temperature.
  • Start with 6 minutes flipping halfway through and then cut open and feel the insides, longer with bone in pieces. If you want to add sauce, brush it on after flipping it over.
  • You can add more time beyond that, just enough to get the middle warm, but don't want it to dry out.
