Air Fryer Cajun Chicken and Corn
Sometimes the easiest air fryer dinner recipes are the best, for example… Air Fryer Cajun Chicken and Corn!
It’s a simple meal for two with absolutely ZERO fancy schmancy-ness đŸ˜‰ But with 100% delicious-ness!
I used a pound of chicken thighs, but chicken breasts work too of course.
The thighs are more flavorful and moist, plus a bit more budget friendly compared to chicken breasts.
How to make Air Fryer Cajun Chicken and Corn
First cut the chicken into bite size pieces and put them in a bowl.
Then add some lime juice, minced garlic, a drizzle of olive oil, and some Cajun seasoning.
I also added a little kosher salt and pepper too.
Toss the chicken until evenly mixed.
Next brush more olive oil on two ears corn on the cob.
Then season with Cajun seasoning.
Put the chicken bites and the seasoned corn in the air fryer basket.
And set the air fryer to 390 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes.
Air Fryer Cajun Chicken and Corn is really that easy!
You could serve this with a dipping sauce or just like this.
It’s super flavorful and the perfect dinner for two!
