Don’t want to waste a hot summer evening cooking? Make Air Fryer Rotisserie Chicken! If you love juicy & delicious chicken with crispy skin, you’ll want to make this.

Sure, you could get in your car & wait in line for fast food, but this takes less than 5 min of prep time. It won’t heat up your house & it never fails, so there’s no need to babysit it, which means you can go outside & soak up the beautiful summer evening! And you can control what’s in it, helping avoid a lot of inflammatory ingredients that are commonly used in fast food and are known to impair digestion & recovery, as well as contribute to weight gain, pain & other health issues. I’m not suggesting you never eat fast food, but it’s helpful to not rely on it.

HOT TIP: I like to keep 1-2 chickens, as well as some leftover cooked rice or baked sweet potato in my freezer + a bag of greens in my fridge every week so I can put together a balanced meal (I’ll enjoy) with almost no effort on busy or beautiful summer evenings!

Directions

  1. Combine the spices & oil in a small bowl.

  2. Set your chicken in the air fryer basket & rub with the spice mix.

  3. Air fry at 350 degrees, breast side down, for 30 min.

  4. Flip & cook for another 25 min, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.

  5. Allow to cool enough to handle & serve. Enjoy! 

Ingredients

  • 4-5lb whole chicken

  • 1 Tbsp Kosher salt

  • 1 1/2 tsp Italian Seasoning

  • 2 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Notes

Make it more nutrient dense & flavourful - Source pasture-raised chickens to make this meal extra tasty & nutritious! Bringing your chicken to room temperature before roasting will also help it cook evenly.

Frozen Chicken - Only have frozen chicken? No problem! Follow the recipe as-is & increase the cooking time until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.

Leftovers - Remove the meat from the bone & store in an airtight container to keep leftovers for up to 5 days in the fridge.
