      Why Should You Use an Air Fryer for These Appetizing Nuggets Instead of Frying Them?

      When you try to fry them in an oven, you might end up having nuggets with a lot of oil retained in them. This problem can be solved using an air fryer. Moreover, it will also help you to cook them perfectly. It will give you a soft and juicy inner side and a crispier outer layer. Moreover, none of the ingredients will run away during cooking in an air fryer. And the most important of all, the parmesan cheese will melt perfectly, and its flavors will penetrate deep inside the nuggets giving more flavors and taste to them.

      What Must be the Time and Temperature Adjustment for Making these Nuggets in Your Air Fryer?

      All the preparations will take only 15 minutes, and then 10 minutes are required to cook these nuggets. Don’t forget to preheat the oven while doing other work. So the total time you are required to make them from zero point is about 25 minutes. The temperature must be set at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for the preheating and cooking phase.

      Serving Tips

      • You can serve them on their own or with some siders, such as roasted vegetables, etc.
      • Serving them with some dipping sauce such as yogurt, ketchup, hot sauce, or cheese sauce will make a perfect combination.
