Chicken is for many a part of their daily diet. We love to give chicken a twist and, this time we are serving it with sweet potatoes and potatoes to make it a filling weeknight dinner. Add an easy tarragon sauce to add extra flavour.

This dish asks for a minimum of effort, because everything is prepared all-in-one in the airfryer!

Baby chicken vs chicken

Baby chicken meat is also called poussin or coquelet in butcher’s terms. This stands for young chickens, less than 28 days old at slaughter and usually weighing 400–450 grams (14–16 oz).
