• Serve the chicken with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover air fried garlic cheesy chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the chicken in the air fryer or oven at 350°F (180°C) for 5-10 minutes until heated through.
• Serve the reheated chicken with fresh lemon wedges for a burst of citrus flavor.
