Preheat the air fryer for the very best results
Don't defrost the popcorn chicken, cook them straight from frozen
Don't overcrowd your air fryer basket - cook popcorn chicken in a single layer
No need to flip or shake them - they will still get a nice color on all sides
Adjust cook time depending on the size of the chicken pieces - this can vary a lot
Cook time can vary with different air fryers
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 4 days - but I recommend not air frying more than you will finish
