Some people love crockpots, some pressure cookers, and some that won’t bother with any of it. I get it because there isn’t any appliance that I love like my air fryer. It is by far my favorite kitchen appliance I own. I probably use it multiple times a day. From crispy air fried veggies to wings, and one day I’ll make my way to desserts. Its one of my favorites because it removes the mess of cooking grease with crispy results and its one pot.

I’ve been trying to expand my air fryer repertoire since I feel like I can do anything in this thing. I stick to my go-to’s but wanted something different but using this appliance and since it has only two items you absolutely cant put In it the sky is the limit. I love that I can build layers of deep flavor in such a short amount of time with such high heat.

Try this recipe out and let me know what you think!
