Air Fryer Hasselback Chicken with Bacon and Cheese

Air Fryer Hasselback Chicken with Bacon and Cheese

Ingredients

Chicken:

2 large chicken breasts
Salt & black pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp Italian seasoning (or mixed herbs)
1–2 tbsp olive oil

Filling:

4–6 slices bacon (cooked until slightly crispy)
6–8 slices cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or gouda)
Optional: sliced jalapeños, spinach, or sun-dried tomatoes
Method

1. Prep the chicken (Hasselback cuts)

Place chicken breasts on a cutting board.
Slice deep cuts across the top, about 1 cm apart, but do not cut all the way through (keep base intact).
This creates pockets for stuffing.

2. Season

Rub chicken with olive oil.
Season well with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
Make sure seasoning gets into the cuts too.

3. Stuff the chicken

Insert bacon pieces and cheese slices into the cuts, alternating for even flavor.
You can tuck in extras like spinach or jalapeños if using.

4. Air fry

Preheat air fryer to 180°C (350°F).
Place chicken in basket (lightly greased or lined).
Cook for 18–22 minutes, depending on thickness.
Check that internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).
Cheese should be melted and bacon slightly crisp.

5. Optional finish

For extra browning, air fry 2–3 more minutes at 200°C (390°F).
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving so juices settle.

Ingredients

For the tuna filling:

1 can tuna (drained)
2–3 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional, for tang)
1 tbsp finely chopped celery (optional, for crunch)
1 tbsp finely chopped red onion
Salt & black pepper (to taste)
A squeeze of lemon juice

For the sandwich:

2 slices bread (sourdough, whole wheat, or white)
2 slices cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss)
1–2 tsp butter (for crisping the bread)
Method

1. Make the tuna mixture

In a bowl, combine drained tuna, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, celery, and onion.
Mix until creamy but still slightly textured.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

2. Assemble the sandwich

Butter one side of each bread slice (this helps it crisp in the air fryer).
Place one slice (buttered side down) on a plate.
Add a generous layer of tuna mixture.
Top with cheese slices.
Close with the second bread slice (buttered side facing out).

3. Air fry

Preheat air fryer to 180°C (350°F).
Place sandwich in basket (lightly spray if needed).
Cook for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway through if your air fryer browns unevenly.
Cook until bread is golden and cheese is fully melted.

4. Finish

Let it sit for 1–2 minutes before cutting (helps the filling set).
Slice diagonally for the classic melt look.
Serve
Serve hot and crispy.
Great with pickles, fries, or a light salad on the side.
