Air fryer settings and times were checked against tested recipes, but every air fryer cooks a little differently, so always check doneness with a food thermometer: 165°F for chicken, livers and leftovers, 145°F for pork and steak with a three-minute rest, 145°F for fish (or until it flakes), 160°F for patties made with raw egg, eggs cooked until white and yolk are firm, and bologna, Spam or deli meat heated until steaming hot. Refrigerate leftovers within two hours. Sarah is an AI narrator voice.
