Learn the best way to make Air Fryer Frozen Chicken Patties with this easy recipe and tons of tips! Using frozen chicken patties saves so much time, and you're guaranteed super crispy chicken with my easy method using the Air Fryer. 

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 4 frozen chicken patties (I use Tyson's brand)

Easy Chicken Sandwiches

  • hamburger buns
  • sliced tomato
  • green leaf lettuce
  • sliced cheese (American, cheddar, havarti, pepper jack, etc)
  • condiments of choice

Instructions

  • Place 4 frozen chicken patties into the air fryer basket in a single layer making sure they are not touching or overlapping.
    * I don't recommend using parchment paper, but if you are, make sure that what you are using has holes in it to circulate the hot air.
    4 frozen chicken patties
  • Cook at 400℉ for 10-12 minutes. Flip each patty over to the other side halfway through the cook time.
    * The patties are pre-cooked but you want to make sure that they are still heated to an internal temperature of 165℉.
    * ADD CHEESE : When the patties are done cooking lay a slice of cheese over each patty. Put the air fryer basket back in (with the air fryer turned off) and leave it in there for a few minutes to melt the cheese.
  • Remove the chicken patties from the air fryer and serve as is OR serve it as an easy chicken sandwich for dinner. Hamburger buns, cheese, tomato, lettuce, condiments, and whatever other toppings you like.

Notes

The nutrition information for this recipe is whatever 1 chicken patty is according to the package nutrition information. Any extra toppings, condiments, buns will be additional to the patty. 
Tip : Most air fryer can fit 4 of the frozen chicken patties. You can make as many as you need to, but be sure and do it in batches so the patties have enough room to properly get the hot air all around them. 
Cooking Spray Tip : For extra crispy chicken patties try spraying the top of each chicken patty with cooking spray before air frying it. This just helps the outside crisp up even more.
