Ingredients
- 4 pound chicken giblets and neck removed, whole
- 6 tablespoons butter softened, unsalted
- 3 tablespoons parsley minced, fresh
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Prepare your chicken, make sure that all giblets are removed, and pat the chicken dry with a paper towel.
- In a bowl, combine the softened butter, minced parsley, lemon juice, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, kosher salt, black pepper, and paprika until it forms a paste.
- With a brush (or your hands), massage the mixture all over the outside of the chicken, and under the skin.
- Place the chicken into the air fryer basket (breast side down to start is best), and turn the air fryer to 370 degrees F for 25 minutes.
- Turn the chicken to the other side, and set the air fryer to 370 degrees F for another 25 minutes.
- Check the internal temperature of the chicken, and make sure that it has reached at least 165 degrees.
- Remove the chicken from the air fryer and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. Carve, and serve!
