• You can experiment with different seasonings and spices in the chicken mixture for added flavor.
• If you don't have an air fryer, you can also bake the chicken balls in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes.

Storage and Serving

• These chicken Kiev balls are best served immediately after cooking for maximum crispiness.
• Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Reheat them in the air fryer or oven until heated through before serving.
