Creating the Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Skillet is simple when you follow these straightforward steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl.
2. Season the Chicken: Add olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the chicken. Mix well to coat the pieces evenly.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
4. Cook the Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken in the air fryer basket. Cook for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
5. Add BBQ Sauce: After 10 minutes, open the air fryer and pour the BBQ sauce over the chicken. Toss to coat thoroughly.
6. Add Vegetables: Add the mixed vegetables to the air fryer basket and toss everything together.
7. Continue Cooking: Cook for an additional 10 minutes, shaking the basket once more to ensure everything cooks evenly.
8. Check for Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). If needed, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
9. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the skillet from the air fryer and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
