Quickly cook the chicken hot dogs up with a nice little singe from the air fryer then gently warm the buns in the air fryer too. So good! You can cook the chicken franks to whatever doneness you like. Just check them halfway through the cooking time and adjust the remainder of your time to your personal taste and texture. If you like your hot dogs extra crispy (similar to grilled hot dogs), Air Fry at 400°F/205°C for about total of about 5-8 minutes. Flip the hot dogs after the first 4 minutes.
