Air-Fryer Fajita-Stuffed Chicken image

I had all the ingredients for fajitas, but instead of heating up my big oven I decided to try out the air fryer. Since mine is a small one, I wanted to get as much filling as I could in each stuffed chicken breast. This worked nicely by cutting slits in the breasts and then filling them. -Joan Hallford, North Richland Hills, Texas
