This easy air fryer recipe takes most of the waiting out of roasting a chicken, with remarkably similar results. We found that even when we cooked our chicken well past 73°C, it was still juicy and not at all dry. Air fryer, we love you.

The sauce for these chicken lettuce wraps is extremely addicting. The sriracha adds a little heat, but you can definitely leave it out if you like (although, we like to add a little extra 😉).
