Air Fryer Chicken and Potato Bake

Tender chicken, golden potatoes and shallots are finished with a creamy egg and cheese topping in this cosy air fryer bake. Marjoram, paprika and cumin add gentle warmth, making it a complete family dinner in under forty minutes. Cleanup is simple too.
What you'll need.
- 500 g potatoes, thinly sliced
- 500 g chicken fillet, sliced
- 3 shallots, chopped
- 2 large eggs
- 60 ml cream
- 120 g cheese, grated
- 2 tbsp parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp dried marjoram
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
How to make it.
- Toss the potatoes and shallots with half the oil, salt and pepper, then air fry at 180°C (350°F) for 6 minutes.
- Season the chicken with marjoram, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper and the remaining oil.
- Add the chicken to the potatoes and air fry at 180°C (350°F) for 12 minutes, stirring once.
- Beat the eggs with the cream, grated cheese and chopped parsley.
- Pour the mixture over the chicken and potatoes and air fry at 180°C (350°F) for 5 minutes more, until set and golden.
My tips.
Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly so they become tender at the same time as the chicken. For a lighter variation, replace the cream with milk and use a little less cheese.
Good to know.
Can I prepare the ingredients ahead?
Slice the chicken and shallots in advance, but keep cut potatoes covered with cold water until cooking.
Can I use chicken thighs?
Boneless thighs are an excellent substitute and will make the bake especially juicy.
What vegetables can I add?
Thinly sliced bell pepper, mushrooms, or small broccoli florets all work well.
