What is your favorite food to cook in your air fryer?

I recently purchased one. I really like it and have used it quite a bit, but would love more ideas.

Chicken wings.  Just cook and toss with Frank’s Hot Sauce.  My family loves these and couldn’t be easier.

I cook almost everything in my AF but one of my favorites is to dredge zucchini rounds in an egg wash and grated parmesan  They come out golden with a nice crunch!

I liked the salmon.  Cooked in 12 minutes. Also potstickers for 10 minutes. Steak fries but don’t remember the time.

I've been thinking of getting one but am undecided about which one is best.  What do you ladies recommend?  TIA.

I have a (I think) 5qt. one by Paula Dean that I like real well . I line it with parchament paper sometimes to avoid clean up. I like purchased fries and tots in it and thin sliced fresh potatoes for chips ( they can burn easily). I have found a lot of experimentation necessary. 

 

I like home cooked 'fried chicken ' with out all of the grease/oil attached. I do use spray oil at each step to keep it crispy.

 

@Tyakcheck out a post in this forum by Tgbt about Paula Dean's newest 8 qt one. I have seen demos on Evine with that one. It s huge and that finish is the same as in her son's cookware that gets a lot of high ratings. Of course a smaller family may not need that large of one.

I like to use my Emeril’s air fryer for onion rings and baking biscuits.
