Chicken of the Woods

This is an easy, delicious, and vegan-friendly recipe for cooking Chicken of the Woods in an air fryer. They taste just like fried chicken!

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Wash and drain 7 pieces of chicken of the woods.

Step 2

Sprinkle ½ tsp of salt over the washed mushrooms. Mix well with your hands. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

Step 3

In a bowl, combine the potato starch, flour, salt, cumin powder, and cold water. Whisk well to create a batter.

Step 4

Crush ½ bag of Doritos Spicy Sweet Chili Flavored Tortilla Chips with a rolling pin or a food processor. Pour the crushed chips to a large plate.

Step 5

Once the mushrooms have marinated for 15 minutes, they will release a lot of water. Drain the excess water from the mushrooms and gently squeeze out any remaining moisture.

Step 6

Place the mushroom pieces in the batter and coat them evenly. Take each coated mushroom piece and dredge it in the crushed chips.

Step 7

Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray or line the air fryer basket with parchment liner to prevent sticking. Place the coated mushroom pieces in a single layer in the basket, making sure they don't overlap.

Step 8

Air fry the mushrooms at 375°F (190°C) for about 15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. Cook until the mushrooms turn golden brown and become crispy.

Step 9

Once cooked, transfer the air-fried chicken of the woods mushrooms to a serving plate. Optionally, enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce (I used Spicy Mayonnaise).
