Air Fryer Peri Peri style Chicken

The slow cooker peri peri-style chicken also borrows some flavours from a popular chicken restaurant (a favourite spot of mine). After 4 hours that succulent meat is practically falling off the bone and great for a fakeaway dinner party.

Air Fryer Spicy Mayo Wedges

Need a speedy side for that chicken? My air fryer spicy mayo potato wedges are less greasy than the usual deep-fried chip but just as addictive. I definitely recommend franks hot sauce, it has to be my go to, and perfect for a dip for these wedges.

Air Fryer Chilli Beef Noodles

For an easy Chinese-takeaway inspired dish, you’ve got to try the honey chilli beef noodles. Everything gets put in the slow cooker for 2 hours – aside from the red pepper, noodles, and stock, which get a quick stir in at the end. So simple.
