1. Fry at 180 degrees for 15 minutes, turning once in the middle. This method is relatively common and ensures that the salt-fried chicken is thoroughly fried, crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. If you like a crispier texture, you can extend the frying time or increase the temperature; if you like a more tender texture, you can shorten the frying time or lower the temperature. The specific time is adjusted according to the size of the chicken pieces and the power of the air fryer.
2. Preheat at 200 degrees for 3 minutes, then fry at 180 degrees for 8 minutes, flip over and fry for another 7 minutes. This method allows the air fryer to reach the frying temperature faster by preheating, thereby shortening the frying time and improving efficiency. At the same time, turning it over can also ensure that the salted crispy chicken is evenly fried and avoid overcooking one side and undercooking the other.
3. Preheat at 200 degrees for 5 minutes, then add the salted crispy chicken and time for 15 minutes, turning 2-3 times during this period. This method is suitable for larger pieces of salted crispy chicken or when you want a crispier texture. Preheating and timing can ensure that the salt-fried chicken is fully fried, while flipping can avoid sticking and over-cooking.
