Air-frying makes the chicken even more crispy. Jonathan Chandler
Every year, Trader Joe's orange chicken is a fan favorite product. It's great in the air fryer.
It takes 12 minutes to cook and comes out crispy and tender on the outside, but moist and chewy on the inside.
You can then microwave the sauce and serve it with rice or by itself.
