Transfer the seasoned chicken to the air fryer basket and air fry at 380°F for 7 mins.
Pull out the basket, shake the basket to move the strips around. You can use a pair tongs.
Next add the peppers and onions. (See note 5) Mix then continue cooking for another 6 to 8 mins or until chicken is cooked through and internal temperature is at least 165°F (74°C)
When chicken is cooked through, let it rest for 2 mins before serving.

Notes

No need to preheat the air fryer.
Cut peppers and onions into chunky strips.
Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary.
Shake the basket halfway through cooking for even browning.
If you prefer softer peppers, add the peppers at the same time with the chicken instead of waiting to add it halfway through.
