Preparation
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) to ensure even cooking.

  3. Serve the dish hot, enjoying the wonderful aroma and vibrant colors right away!

Notes

For best results, cut chicken pieces uniformly, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket, and feel free to adjust seasonings to taste. Consider adding a squeeze of lemon before serving for an extra zing!
