Ingredients

Servings
  • 3-4 pound chicken whole roasting
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Set a whole 3 to 4 pound roasting chicken out on a cutting board or in a baking dish. Check both the front and back cavity of the chicken to remove any gizzards. Pat the skin of the chicken dryer with a paper towel.
  2. Rub olive oil over the surface of the skin, making sure to coat it evenly on all sides.
  3. Set out a small bowl and mix the Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the chicken, rotating the chicken around for even coating. (If needed, use your hands to rub the seasoning around the chicken for good coverage.)
  4. Place the whole chicken in the air fryer basket, breast side up. Close the air fryer and set to 360°F. Air fry the chicken for 30 to 50 minutes, depending on the size. At the 30-minute mark, stop the air fryer and insert a meat thermometer deep into the breast and thigh meat. If they have reached 165°F, remove the chicken from the air fryer basket. Otherwise, close the basket and continue to cook in 5 to 10 minute increments until done.
  5. Allow the chicken to cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting to serve.

Notes

  • If your chicken is large and barely fits into the air fryer basket, you may have to cover it with foil after the first 30 minutes. That way the top doesn’t get too dark because it is so close to the heating coil.
  • Cooked chicken will keep well in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days. Let it cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container and placing it in the refrigerator.
  • To freeze air-fried chicken, cool it first before transferring it to an airtight zipper bag. Keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.
