Notes
- Cook's Tip #1: Take the frozen chicken out of the freezer once you're ready to cook them. There is no need to thaw them.
- Cook's Tip #2: If you prefer, skip the brushing of the oil since the nuggets already have some oil in them. It is to ensure that the frozen chunks would not stick to the bottom of the air fryer.
- Cook's Tip #3: Make sure to keep some distance between each nugget. It helps them cook faster and gives them an even, golden color.
