- Try these air fryer french fries for a crispy, healthier french fries on the side.
- Air fryer chicken wings are amazingly crisp, and takes less time than the oven.
- Use broccoli florets that are cut/torn into roughly even-sized, very small pieces. Think mini-florets. The tiny, even pieces will result in quick cooking and even browning.
- We use garlic powder and onion powder in lieu of freshly chopped, as the freshly minced garlic can burn easily.
- Toss the broccoli florets together with seasonings in a bowl prior to transferring to air fryer basket. This allows all the nooks and crannies of the air fryer broccoli will be packed with flavor.
- Garnish with freshly grated parmesan cheese or a sprinkle of lemon juice, or even some lemon zest for bright flavors.
