Rub the chicken with olive oil and lemon juice, making sure that the entire chicken is covered.
Combine all of the remaining ingredients to create a spice mix. Sprinkle half of the spice mix over the top of your chicken, then flip it over and sprinkle the rest on the bottom of the chicken. Press gently to make sure the seasonings stick well.
Place the chicken in the air fryer, breast side up and air fry for 30 minutes at 350°F/177°C.
Half way through cooking time, carefully flip the chicken over and continue cooking for another 30 minutes, until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked to 165°F/74°C.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving, garnished with fresh parsley and lemon.
Don't attempt to cook a chicken larger than 5 pounds in the Ninja Foodi. Make sure that your chicken fits all the way in the basket and is not touching the heating element.
It is important to make sure that the chicken cavity is empty before cooking. Take out the giblet package and discard or save for another day.
Lemon adds a special and delicious tangy flavor to this recipe. Use lemon slices as plate garnishes.
Use fresh herbs in place of the dried ones if you have them.
Pro Tip: This recipe can be made in the air fryer unit with a basket or the air fryer oven. If you are using the air fryer oven, use the middle rack and select the "Air Fry" function.
Pro Tip: Check your food as it cooks. Each air fryer runs a bit differently. Sometimes airfrying is a trial and error process. Check your food as it cooks to learn your air fryer better! When cooking a new recipe or food items be sure to check your food often to help avoid over/under cooking.
