Before you start
Gather the ingredients and the pan or pot before turning on the heat. These steps keep the cooking efficient while still spelling out the key heat settings, doneness cues, and safe handling details.
Safe temp: Poultry
165°F · Use a food thermometer
1. Step 1
Preheat the air fryer if required, arrange the food in a single layer, and cook at the listed temperature. Shake or turn halfway through, then check for crispness and 165°F in the thickest chicken piece before removing.
Poultry: 165°F. Use a food thermometer and check the center of the thickest piece without touching bone.
2. Step 2
Whisk the eggs until even. Cook them in a buttered nonstick skillet over low to medium-low heat, gently pushing the set edges toward the center. Remove from heat when no liquid egg remains but the surface is still soft, then add the filling and fold.
3. Step 3
Preheat the air fryer if required, arrange the food in a single layer, and cook at the listed temperature. Shake or turn halfway through, then check for crispness and 165°F in the thickest chicken piece before removing.
4. Step 4
Cook the vegetables in the listed fat over medium heat, keeping them in a mostly even layer. Stir every few minutes and continue until they are browned or fork-tender as the recipe describes; add a splash of water and cover briefly if they need help softening.
5. Finish and serve
Preheat the air fryer if required, arrange the food in a single layer, and cook at the listed temperature. Shake or turn halfway through, then check for crispness and 165°F in the thickest chicken piece before removing.
