Ingredients: |
Ingredients: 2 lb bag frozen, fully cooked chicken nuggets/strips
1 cup orange marmalade
½ cup BBQ sauce
1-2 Tbsp sriracha, to taste
1 Tbsp soy sauce
Mild to HOT: Start with a Tbsp of sriracha; taste the sauce. A single Tbsp won’t make the sauce too spicy, but is a good starting point. If you’re trying to achieve a spicier sauce, you’re likely going to need to add at least two more Tbsp of sriracha to get it nice and spicy!
Orange Marmalade: If you’re unable to find orange marmalade, or want to try something different, apricot marmalade is an excellent choice known for its pungent, sweet taste. It pairs very well with the barbecue in the sauce.
Air Fryer Chicken: You can use any frozen chicken tenders or nuggets you like. Be sure to check the packaging for the correct cook time and temperature and follow those directions.

Directions:Follow the air fryer directions on the bag of chicken nuggets/strips.
While the chicken is cooking, make sauce. In a medium microwave safe bowl add marmalade, bbq sauce, sriracha and soy sauce and mix well. Taste test the sauce to see if you would like extra sriracha for heat.
Heat in microwave for 1 minute, stir well and heat for an additional minute.
Remove from microwave and add cooked chicken to sauce and toss to fully coat the chicken in sauce. Serve immediately, as desired, with rice!
