Best Seasoning for Air Fryer Chicken
Air fryer chicken needs more than a pinch of salt. A punchy dry seasoning gives the outside a proper crust while the chicken stays juicy inside. DUST blends are made for getting flavour onto food quickly, whether you are cooking thighs, breast, drumsticks or wings.
Build flavour before the air fryer
Pat chicken dry, add a little oil, then coat it evenly with seasoning. The oil helps the blend cling and encourages colour. Leave space around each piece in the basket so hot air can crisp the surface instead of steaming it.
Choose the flavour for the job
Smoky BBQ brings a low-and-slow barbecue character without firing up a grill. Buffalo Ranch works brilliantly on wings, while Lemon Pepper Punch is bright enough for chicken breast and fish. Cook until the thickest part is safely cooked through, then rest briefly before serving.
Finish like a takeaway
Add a final light shake after cooking if you want the aroma to hit first. Serve with chips, slaw or a sharp salad. The best air fryer chicken is crisp, well-seasoned and properly hot all the way through.
DUST tip
Taste. Then turn it up.
Add a final light dusting while the food is hot for a bigger aroma hit.
