Expert Tips

  • For best results, pre-heat the air fryer to ensure that the chicken sausages cook evenly.
  • Leave the sausages in the air fryer for a few extra minutes if you like them crispy.
  • Flip and rotate the chicken sausages halfway through cooking to make sure all sides are golden brown.
  • Spray the chicken sausage with avocado oil or coconut oil before cooking to get crispy skin.
  • Do not overlap the chicken sausages in the air fryer. Place them in a single layer in the basket or tray.
  • When using a baking tray, I prefer parchment paper over aluminum foil. To avoid sticking you can use a non-stick spray like avocado oil.

How To Store Leftovers

Leftover sausages should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
