Ingredients
  

  • 4 ALDI Red Bag Chicken Filets Kirkwood Frozen Chicken Breast Filets
  • Cooking Oil Spray
  • 12-16 Pickle slices
  • Mayonnaise
  • 4 Brioche buns

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
  • Arrange up to 4 pieces of ALDI Red Bag Chicken filets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking. Spray chicken with oil for crispier chicken. NOTE: Do not use a cooking spray with additives as it can damage your air fryer's non-stick coating.

Notes

    • Cook from frozen – Do not thaw first.
    • Don’t crowd the air fryer basket. Arrange the chicken in a single layer with some space between them to allow proper air circulation.
    • For extra crispy chicken, lightly spray the chicken with cooking oil before air frying. Important note: Use an oil sprayer filled with your preferred oil. Avoid using a pressurized cooking spray with additives as it might damage the air fryer surface.
    • Turn the chicken halfway through the cooking time to ensure both sides become crispy and golden brown.
    • Use an air fryer parchment paper liner when air frying chicken for easier clean-up.
    • If you prefer a spicy chicken sandwich, mix ¼ cup mayonnaise with 1 teaspoon or more of sriracha hot sauce and stir to combine. Use this in place of plain mayonnaise.
    • Recipe time and temperature is based on a preheated air fryer.
    • Air fryer brands vary, so you may have to adjust the cook time to your specific air fryer model.
