Prepare the Ingredients
In a bowl, combine your protein (like chicken or fish) with your favorite seasonings, vegetables, and a drizzle of olive oil or a slice of butter for richness. You can add herbs like thyme, rosemary, or garlic for extra flavor.

Create the Foil Packets
Tear off a large sheet of aluminum foil. Place your protein and veggies in the center, folding up the sides of the foil to create a packet. Be sure to seal the edges tightly so the steam can’t escape.

Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for a few minutes.

-
Cook the Foil Packets
Place the foil packet in the air fryer basket. Cook for 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness of your protein. For chicken, check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer—165°F (74°C) is the magic number for fully cooked poultry.

Serve and Enjoy!
Carefully open the foil packet (watch out for hot steam!) and serve your flavorful meal with your favorite side dishes like rice or potatoes.
