💌 Recipe

1/2 cup milk (I use almond but you can use whatever)

Salt

Pepper

Garlic

It says to marinate and then remove and air fry. I never marinate because I’m not that prepared 🤣 I just pop in small dish and air fry whole thing. Flip 7 min and continue for 7 min. I’d just keep checking your temp could be diff. I like to also cut chicken into pieces 1/2 way thru before cooking other 7 min.
