  • cheddar40 g

  • seasonal vegetables, potato wedges and ketchup, for serving

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the air fryer to 190 °C. Wrap each chicken breast with bacon strips widthwise. If the breasts are very thick, first cook them in the air fryer for 10 minutes without bacon, then continue cooking the wrapped pieces for another 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Brush the surface of the breasts with barbecue sauce, sprinkle with grated cheddar (you may use less than the full amount). Then cook for another 10 minutes, until the meat is cooked through and the cheese has melted.

  3. 3

    Serve the chicken with seasonal vegetables, potato wedges and ketchup, arranged separately as desired.
