Instructions

How To Reheat Chicken Parm In Air Fryer

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 3-5 minutes.
  • Place the chicken Parmesan in the Ninja Foodi or air fryer basket in a single layer. If your chicken is thick, it will take longer to cook, which can burn the cheese. Wrap in aluminum foil for the first half of the cooking time if necessary to prevent the cheese from burning.
  • Cook the chicken Parmesan in the air fryer for about 6-8 minutes or until the chicken is fully warmed through, the outside is crispy, and the cheese is melted.
  • Once heated, remove it from the air fryer with tongs, and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
  • Note: How long it takes to reheat chicken parm in the air fryer depends on how thick and large the pieces of chicken are. Start with 6-8 minutes and add additional cooking time if needed.

How To Reheat Chicken Parmesan In The Oven

  • Preheat your oven to a medium heat of 350°F (175°C).
  • Place the chicken Parmesan on a baking sheet or in an oven-safe dish, pan, or skillet.
  • Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the chicken is heated through. Add 5-8 minutes of baking time if you have thick pieces of chicken.
  • Once heated, remove from the oven, and let it cool for a few minutes before serving

How To Reheat Chicken Parmesan In The Microwave

  • Place the leftover chicken Parmesan on a microwave-safe plate.
  • Cover the plate with a microwave-safe lid or microwave-safe plastic wrap to retain moisture.
  • Microwave on medium-high power for 90 seconds.
  • Carefully remove the plate from the microwave and check the temperature of the chicken. If needed, continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until the desired temperature is reached.
  • Let it rest for a minute or two before serving.

Notes

How long it takes to reheat chicken parmesan depends on the size and thickness of your chicken. Monitor and adjust the cooking time as needed.
