Step-by-step instruction without your screen going to sleep

  • 1 1/2  pounds bulk lean chicken or turkey sausage 
  • 3 raw eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups dried bread crumbs, divided
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 6 hardboiled eggs, peeled
  • Cooking oil spray 

Utensils

  • Large Bowl
  • Three Small Bowls
  • Silicone-Tipped Tongs
  • Step 1

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken sausage, 1 raw egg, and 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs and mix well. Divide the mixture into 6 pieces and flatten each into a long oval.

  • Step 2

    In a shallow bowl, beat the remaining 2 raw eggs. 

  • Step 3

    Place the flour in a small bowl. 

  • Step 4

    Place the remaining 1 cup of breadcrumbs in a second small bowl. 

  • Step 5

    Roll each hardboiled egg in the flour and wrap one of the chicken
    sausage pieces around each egg to encircle it completely. 

  • Step 6

    One at a time, roll the encased eggs in the flour, dip in the
    beaten eggs, and finally dip in the bread crumbs to coat. 

  • Step 7

    Insert the crisper plate into the basket and the basket into the unit. Preheat the unit by selecting AIR FRY, setting the temperature to 375°F, and setting the time to 3 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin. 

  • Step 8

    Once the unit is preheated, spray the crisper plate with cooking oil. Place the eggs in a single layer into the basket and spray them with oil. 

  • Step 9

    Select AIR FRY, set the temperature to 375°F, and set the time to 13 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin. 

  • Step 10

    After about 6 minutes, use tongs to turn the eggs and spray them with more oil. Resume cooking for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the Scotch eggs are browned.

  • Step 11

    When the cooking is complete, serve warm.
