Instructions
Cooking airfryer chicken sausage is a breeze, reminiscent of the simple, unfussy meals my mother would whip up with flair. Here’s how you can bring this dish to life in your own kitchen:
1. **Preheat Your Airfryer:** Set it to 350°F (175°C), allowing it to come to temperature while you prepare the sausages.
2. **Prepare the Sausages:** Lightly brush the chicken sausage links with olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper, ensuring each link is evenly coated.
3. **Add Herbs:** Scatter fresh rosemary or thyme over the sausages, gently pressing them into the surface.
4. **Airfry to Perfection:** Place the sausages in a single layer in the airfryer basket. Cook for 12-15 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
5. **Check for Doneness:** Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
