Could you please add the air fryer temperature setting to use to your recipe? Also, is the recipe designed for a certain size air fryer? Thank you. This recipe sounds tasty. -
I am learning about Air fryers. Here’s I have done. My air fryer is a 4 QT with many setting. I would use the air fryer button to crisp up the chicken. Now my air fryer has a rack on the bottom. There for pasta sauce would be a mess going thru the openings on the rack. So I have two options I can do and have. Parchment paper liners with magnets strips to hold paper on sides because the air circulates around and moves the papers, I bought the red long magnets that were recommended. Second is to buy the silicone liners for your size air fryer. They have handles on each side. Take the rack out if you have one and place the silicone liner in. Proceed with the recipe and no mess. Lift out the liner and serve. Wash the Silicone liner and good to go for the next recipes. Food.com will have more delicious recipes and these tips will help you thanks. Food.com for adding this air fryer recipe. -
I'm a new owner of an Air Fryer. I'm confused on if I press the Air Fryer or Bake button. None of the recipes I've seen specify what I should use. -
While the second batch is in the fryer, do you recommend keeping the first batch warm in the oven at a certain temperature? Covered? Uncovered? Thanks! -
I have an air fryer and I can set it to many temperatures. What temperature are you using to cook your Chicken Parmesan at?

A great take on a healthier version of a classic! It was super easy to make in the air fryer. Highly recommend to anyone! -
So yummy! Easy to follow recipe, and it came out delicious! -
So good! Used two chicken breasts with full topping ingredients. Air fried at 375 degrees for about five minutes per side. Came out crunchy on the outside, and moist and tender on the inside. Air fryer cooking moves right along, so it's a good idea to have your sides ready before you start. Can always keep them in a warm oven until ready to eat. If air frying in batches, tent the chicken with foil and keep warm in a 170 degree oven.
