Placing rice and marinated chicken in the air fryer
  • Place the rice and chicken spread in the airfryer and bake at 180 degrees for 12 minutes.
Creating a source
  • In the meantime, make your sauce. 2 T mayonnaise, 1 T tomato ketchup, 0.5 T sriracha, 0.5 T sambal ketchupand mix well.
  • Place the toasted rice from the air fryer on a plate and top with the chicken.
  • If you have any leftover chicken seasoning, sprinkle it over the chicken and finish with one more drizzle of the prepared sauce.

Caveats & tips

  • If you spread the rice too thickly, it won't crisp up on the inside, so spread it as thinly as possible.
  • To keep the chicken from drying out, you may want to cover it loosely with foil halfway through cooking in the air fryer.
  • If your leftover chicken is fried rather than marinated, add the marinade to the side for extra flavor.
  • If you don't have any leftover chicken, try using frozen marinated chicken or chicken shreds.
