Instructions

  1. 1 Combine broth, salt, rosemary, sage, thyme, and savory in a large stockpot. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently until salt dissolves; let cool to room temperature. Pour into a food-grade 5-gallon bucket. Stir in ice water.
  2. 2 Pat turkey dry; remove giblets from cavity. Place turkey, breast-side down, into brine, making sure cavity fills. Refrigerate at least 8 hours, or overnight.
  3. 3 Drain off and discard excess brine; pat turkey dry. Cook turkey as desired, reserving drippings for gravy. Note that brined turkeys often cook 20 to 30 minutes faster; start checking for doneness early.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place chicken into a medium bowl.
  2. 2 Combine salt, paprika, black pepper, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, basil, oregano, and sage in a small bowl; reserve 1 teaspoon seasoning mixture. Sprinkle remaining seasoning mixture over chicken and toss to coat evenly.
  3. 3 Combine cornstarch and reserved 1 teaspoon seasoning mixture in a large resealable plastic bag; shake to combine. Add chicken and seal the bag; shake to coat evenly. Transfer chicken to a fine mesh strainer and shake to remove excess cornstarch. Let rest until cornstarch begins to absorb into chicken, 5 to 10 minutes.
  4. 4 Preheat an air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
  5. 5 Arrange chicken in a single layer in the prepared basket, making sure not to overlap. You may have to do two batches, depending on the size of your air fryer. Mist chicken with cooking spray.
  6. 6 Cook in the preheated air fryer for 4 minutes. Shake the air fryer basket and mist chicken again with cooking spray so there are no dry or powdery areas. Continue cooking until chicken is no longer pink on the inside and the juices run clear, 4 to 5 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
