- Preheat Your Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to preheat at 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Cook the Mixture: Place the seasoned chicken and vegetable mixture in the air fryer basket. Ensure they are spread evenly for proper cooking. Air fry for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.

For even cooking, slice your chicken and vegetables into similar size strips. Don’t overcrowd the basket and check the chicken for doneness.
