Air Fryer BBQ Chicken and Corn
You ever hear the phrase, “Complicated is overrated”? Well that’s the theme with this easy recipe for Air Fryer BBQ Chicken and Corn.
This is a complete meal for two all made in the air fryer and it could not be more simple.
But it truly is amazingly tasty and on the healthy side.
How to make Air Fryer BBQ Chicken and Corn
First cut a pound of boneless, skinless chicken thighs into bite size pieces.
The thighs are juicier, more tender, cheaper, and tastier… but breasts work too if you want a leaner cut of chicken.
Put them in a gallon size plastic bag with Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, kosher salt, pepper, plenty of BBQ seasoning, and minced garlic or garlic powder.
Massage the bag until well combined and marinate in the fridge.
Then brush two ears corn on the cob with olive oil.
And season them with kosher salt, pepper, and more BBQ seasoning.
Then put the seasoned corn and chicken bites into the air fryer basket.
Mine juuuuuuust fit in a single layer.
Set the air fryer to 390 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes.
Air Fryer BBQ Chicken and Corn is the perfect air fried meal for two 🙂
We dipped ours in BBQ sauce, but that’s optional of course.
My husband complimented me on this dinner quite a few times.
If he only knew how ridiculously simple it was 😉
