Description

Make a quick version of the KFC Famous Bowl using an air fryer for crispy chicken and potatoes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen french fries
  • 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1/4 cup chicken gravy
  • 1/4 cup mashed potatoes (instant or prepared)
  • 1 tablespoon shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Place frozen french fries in the air fryer basket. Cook according to air fryer instructions until crispy, usually about 10-12 minutes at 380F (195C), shaking halfway through.
  2. While fries cook, warm the chicken gravy slightly if needed.
  3. Assemble the bowl layers in this order: french fries, mashed potatoes, shredded chicken, and corn.
  4. Pour the warm chicken gravy over the layers.
  5. Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Return the assembled bowl (if your air fryer basket is oven-safe, otherwise skip this step and serve immediately) to the air fryer for 2-3 minutes at 350F (175C) just to melt the cheese slightly, or serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can use leftover mashed potatoes or prepare instant ones according to package directions.
  • For the chicken, use rotisserie chicken or bake/air fry chicken breasts and shred them.
  • Adjust air fryer temperature based on your specific model for the best fry crispness.
