Air Fryer Chicken Quarter

I don’t know about you guys, but I am feeling the effect of inflation, so I am extra vigilant about our family food spending and using the cheapest ingredients I can find.

So today, I’m making air-fried chicken quarters, which are surprisingly cheap yet really delicious. This is so worth the simple effort.

Ingredients

Sprite
Onion and garlic powder
Soy sauce
Oyster sauce
Finely chopped Lemongrass
Chicken Quarters

How do you Make It?

Last night, I marinated eight pieces of chicken quarters using my Filipino-style marinade, which consists of Sprite, garlic and onion powder, soy sauce, and the star ingredients—lemongrass and oyster sauce.

This marinade recipe has a custom taste: Adjust the taste to your liking.

First prepare and mix the marinade ingredients into a bowl. I marinated the chicken quarters overnight

When the chicken quarters are ready, I prepare the Instant Pot Duo Crisp plus Air Fryer and put the inner pot to the base. I set the air fryer basket and set the steaming tray on top. I line the chicken quarters to the thray and cover the Instant pot with the air fryer basket. Ensure to spray the tray with nonstick oil.
Air fry the Chicken quarters.

How Do You Store You Marinated and Cooke Chicken Quarters

I love this recipe so much that I always make a huge batch of this. This is my way of storing this meal.

I make a huge batch of the marinade. I double the recipe for the marinade and store it in the fridge, or you can even freeze it. This way, it is readily available when I have an urge to airf fry chicken quarters.
Another way is I marinate the chicken and store it in the freezer. I use ziploc and I remove air from it. I freeze the marinated chicken quarters flat and I simply thaw when it is ready to cook.
