Instructions

  1. Chop up your whole chickens into drumsticks, thighs, wings, and breasts. Put to one side.
  2. Create your production line. Crack eggs into a bowl and mix with a fork. Place flour in a bowl and season well with chicken seasoning, salt, and pepper. Place breadcrumbs into a bowl and mix with half your KFC rub.
  3. Toss the chicken in half your KFC rub. Then load chicken into the flour mixture, then into the egg, and then into the breadcrumbs bowl. Make sure each piece of chicken is well coated from each bowl.
  4. Place the KFC chicken into the air fryer basket on a single layer.
  5. Cook for 12 minutes at 180c/360f. Then turn and cook for a further 4 minutes at the same temperature. If doing a big batch doing in lots making sure you on don’t over fill the air fryer.
  6. Serve warm in your old KFC bucket.

Notes

  • Chopping. We chopped a small whole chicken (it weighed slightly more than a Cornish hen) and I recommend you read how to chop up a whole chicken before doing this recipe.
  • Alternatively buy a mixture of thighs, drumsticks, wings, and breast and use that instead.
  • Reheat. I recommend you check out our reheating KFC chicken guide as its perfect for your leftovers from this recipe and also includes a video.
  • Thanks for reading our air fryer KFC chicken recipe on Recipe This. We have many more air fryer recipes for you to check out next. Though if you would like more breaded chicken ideas, I recommend you check out our air fryer breaded chicken wings next.
