Equipment

  • 1 air fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pkg Chicken Sausage

Optional Ingredients

  • 1 Green bell pepper sliced
  • 1 Red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 Yellow bell pepper
  • 1/2 Onion sliced

Instructions
 

  • Open the package of the dinner sausage and place in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  • Spray the tops of the sausage with some olive oil. This will help get a crispy skin. 
  • Next, set the air fryer to 400 degrees and air fry the sausages for 4 minutes. After 4 minutes, open the air fryer and check the sausages and flip once to ensure an even crispness.
  • Spray with olive oil again and cook for approximately another 4 minutes.
  • Total cook time will be approximately 8-10 minutes depending on the thickness of the chicken sausage. 
  • Once the sausages have cooked through, remove from the air fryer and allow to cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying!

Optional

  • Sautee bell peppers and onions until they have wilted and are soft
  • Serve chicken sausage over bell peppers

Notes
