- For faster cooking, slice boneless chicken breasts in half before wrapping them in bacon.
- Make sure the chicken breasts are equal in size and thickness for even cooking.
- Use a thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken.
- All air fryers cook differently, so the cooking time may need to be adjusted.
