With this air fryer rotisserie chicken method, you get juicy, tender meat with beautifully crisp and flavorful skin right at home. If you’re searching for easy dinner recipes, this one brings that classic rotisserie flavor without needing a trip to the store.
It has the same comforting appeal as the popular rotisserie chickens everyone loves, with golden skin on the outside and moist chicken inside. The air fryer helps everything cook evenly while keeping the texture especially crisp.
If you’re making a stuffed chicken, you’ll want to allow a little extra cooking time and loosely cover it with foil during the first part of cooking so the skin doesn’t darken too quickly.
For larger chickens over five pounds, using an extra-large air fryer works best to give the chicken enough room to cook properly and evenly.

Ingredients
- 1 Whole Chicken cleaned and blotted dry
- 2 Tablespoons Ghee (or high quality Coconut Oil or Olive Oil)
- 1 Tablespoon TOG House Seasoning
Instructions
- Remove the giblet packet from the chicken and pat the chicken dry with paper towels.
- Rub the chicken all over with ghee or oil, then season generously on all sides.
- Place the chicken breast-side down in the air fryer basket.
- Cook at 350°F for 30 minutes. Carefully flip the chicken over and continue cooking for another 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving.
Notes
- For chickens weighing 5 pounds or more, use a 5.8-quart or larger air fryer and increase the cooking time to about 35 minutes per side.
- If using a Mealthy Crisplid with an Instant Pot, Mealthy MultiPot, or other pressure cooker, use the short-legged trivet. The Crisplid basket is optional.
- When using an air fryer oven, flipping the chicken is usually not necessary.
