Making Air Fryer BBQ Chicken with Peach Salsa

Let’s dive into the heart of this creation. The star of the show is the Air Fryer BBQ Chicken, coated with a sumptuous layer of your favorite barbecue sauce (I use Stubbs which is WW friendly and has a great hint of spice that pairs nicely here). The air fryer works its magic, resulting in chicken that’s perfectly cooked and juicy. It’s a dish that encapsulates the essence of a backyard BBQ, minus the hassle of firing up the grill.

But wait, there’s more! Imagine the juicy goodness of ripe peaches mingling with the crunch of mini sweet peppers, the bite of diced onion, and the zing of jalapeño. All this goodness is elevated with the freshness of chopped cilantro. Some zesty lime and a touch of monk fruit sweetener balance the flavors.

To assemble this masterpiece, simply plate your air-fried BBQ chicken and top with Peach Salsa. Each bite is a symphony of textures and tastes. The tender chicken, the smoky BBQ sauce, and the burst of juicy, sweet, and spicy notes from the salsa- yum! Serve with your choice of sides (I usually do some steamed broccoli and/or rice) and enjoy!

Store chicken and salsa separately in air tight containers in the fridge if you plan to make ahead and/or reheat.
