Tips on Baking Potatoes in an Air Fryer
- Clean and dry potatoes well before cooking to remove all the dirt.
- Cooking time depends on the size of the potatoes. Try to pick similarly sized potatoes to prevent some from cooking faster than others.
- Use a knife or a fork to check if the potatoes are cooked. If the knife/fork goes through potatoes easily and potatoes are tender, they are done.
- Heavy cream makes all the difference in the chicken alfredo sauce. It gives the sauce a rich intense flavor.
- Taste the sauce before seasoning with salt. Chicken stock and Parmesan will already make the sauce taste salty, so be careful not to over-season it.

Equipment
Ingredients
For the Chicken Alfredo Sauce:
- 1 chicken breast cut into strips
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese grated
- 4 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
For the Potatoes:
- 4 medium russet potatoes washed and dried
- 1 cup cheddar cheese grated
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Using a fork, poke a few holes in each potato. Rub them with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Place potatoes into the air fryer basket, leaving enough room between each one.
- Cook for 30 minutes or until tender at 400° F (200° C).
- While potatoes are being cooked, prepare the sauce. Start by heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil into a skillet over medium heat. Add in chicken strips and cook for about 10 minutes or until golden. Transfer chicken to a bowl and set aside.
- Add the remaining oil and minced garlic to the same skillet and saute for 2 minutes. Pour in chicken stock and deglaze the pan using a wooden spoon.
- Whisk in the cream and bring to a boil.
- Finally, add Parmesan and stir until combined. Season with salt and pepper and leave on the stove.
- Remove potatoes from the air fryer and let cool.
- When potatoes are easy to handle, slice them lengthwise. Add a spoon of grated cheddar cheese into each potato and top with chicken alfedo sauce. Sprinkle with some more cheddar and serve!
