  • 1/4 tsp Crushed Black Pepper

    1 Chicken
  • In a bowl, whisk together salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, dried thyme, and sugar.
    1 tsp Kosher Salt, 1/2 tsp Paprika, 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder, 1/4 tsp Crushed Black Pepper, 1/4 tsp Dried Thyme, 1/2 tsp White Granulated Sugar
  • Rub the skin with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning.

  • To ensure accurate temperature readings, insert the probe into the thickest part of the chicken breast, making sure the safety notch is completely immersed.
  • Carefully add the chicken to the basket, breast side down. Place the basket back into the air fryer.
  • Press the "Start Cooking" button, set the probe's target temperature to 155 ℉ / 68 ℃ for juicy texture, and begin cooking. To cook manually on air fryer, press and hold the PRESET button for 3 seconds to enter the Smart Whole Chicken Program. The air fryer adjusts the cooking temperature dynamically based on the probe temperature, starting low, increasing as the meat heats, and prompting you to flip when needed.

  • The unit will emit a sound prompt and the display will flash FLIP to remind you to turn the chicken. If cooking was started via the app, a flip notification will also be sent to your phone. Using tongs, carefully flip the chicken to breast side up and let it continue cooking.
  • Using a pair of tongs, carefully remove the chicken from the air fryer to a plate or serving tray. Let the chicken rest for at least 10 minutes. (The internal temperature will continue to rise.)
  • Carefully remove the probe.
  • Serve with your favorite side dishes.
