Why Air Fry Your Chicago Town?
- Speed Demon: We've all been there - starving and staring down a frozen pizza that needs 20 minutes in the oven. The air fryer cuts that wait time in half, with a cook time of around 12-15 minutes. That's basically the time it takes to find your favorite dipping sauce (ranch, forever and always).
- Crispy Crust Champion: The air fryer's magic lies in its ability to circulate hot air, giving you a crust that's crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. No more soggy disappointment!
Conquering Chicago Town in the Air Fryer: A Step-by-Step (with Flair)
- Prepare for Takeoff: Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (400°F). While it's getting all hot and bothered, remove the plastic film from your Chicago Town. Deep breaths, pizza perfection is imminent.
- Basket Case: Unless you have a monster air fryer, you might need to get creative. Some folks fold the pizza in half, but we're all about pizza origami here. Try gently** shaping the pizza** to fit the basket, without smooshing all the deliciousness.
- Airtime! Pop your Chicago Town into the preheated air fryer and set the timer for 12 minutes. Remember, this is just a starting point. Ovens vary, so keep an eye on that cheesy goodness.
- The Grand Unveiling (or When Can I Devour This Masterpiece?): After 12 minutes, check the crust. If it's golden brown and crispy, you're a champion! If it needs a little more love, add another minute or two in increments, checking on it like a hawk.
- Victory Lap (and Burns): Carefully remove the pizza from the air fryer using oven mitts (that thing gets HOT!). Let it cool for a few minutes (we know, torture!), then slice and devour. Warning: molten cheese explosions are a distinct possibility.
Pro Tip: Want an extra crispy crust? After the initial cook time, flip the pizza (carefully!) and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Tip: Don’t skip — flow matters.
