A rainy day makes food delivery more tempting than usual.

Im talking about soggy food, folks, and its not pretty.

Luckily, theres help.

An open chicken sandwich.

That would be perfectly reasonable, but no.

Any item that was once deep fried has oil imbued into the outer layer.

Theres no need to do anything to these special items.

Spread the food out in the air fryer basket.

Set the machine to 375F on the air fry setting and let it rip for three to five minutes.

Theyve already cooked once; youre just removing the moisture thats weighing down the crust.

Divide and conquer sandwiches

Sandwiches are tough.

While reheating something likefast food fried chickenis a breeze, sandwiches are glorious compositions of multiple parts.

I decided the best course of action was to perform minor surgery.

The chicken and buns, luckily, have the residual scrapings of mayonnaise.

While this might seem like a problem, its actually helpful.

Same with the bun.

Air fry the chicken for five to seven minutes in total, depending on how crispy you like it.

Honestly, Ive never seen anything like it.

One side even had pickles and ketchup involved and still the bond was secure.

I know, the point of ordering delivery is to do less work.

My air-fried delivery was crispy, hot, and maintained all of its original flavor.

Use this quick air-frying technique for any floppy fried-food delivery.

Even if its freshly delivered, sometimes fast food needs some help.

Take the extra five to 10 minutes to rescue it, and youll be glad you did.
