  • Total Time: 15
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 frozen chicken sausages (e.g., Seemore Chicken Parm Sausage or any preferred brand)

  • 4 sprays of olive oil or avocado oil spray

  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper (optional)

  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer:
    Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes. This ensures even cooking and a crisp exterior.

  2. Prepare the Basket:
    Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil to prevent sticking.

  3. Arrange the Sausages:
    Place the frozen chicken sausages in a single layer in the basket. Leave space between them for optimal air circulation.

  4. Season (Optional):
    Sprinkle garlic powder, black pepper, or smoked paprika if you want extra flavor.

  5. Cook:
    Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 12–15 minutes, flipping the sausages halfway through cooking.

  6. Check for Doneness:
    Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  7. Serve:
    Remove the sausages from the basket and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Precooked Sausages: If your sausages are precooked, 8–10 minutes is usually enough.

  • Raw Frozen Sausages: May take 14–16 minutes depending on thickness.

  • Batch Cooking: Avoid overcrowding the basket; cook in batches for best results.

  • Add Veggies: Toss sliced peppers, onions, or potatoes into the basket for a complete one-pan meal.
