- Place chips with oil into a large mixing bowl; toss to combine with at least ½ tablespoon oil. For crispier results, use up to 3 tablespoons oil.
- Insert a crisper plate in both drawers. Place chicken breasts in zone 1, then insert drawer in unit. Place fries in zone 2, then insert drawer in unit.
- Select zone 1, select ROAST, set temperature to 180°C and set time to 25 minutes. Select zone 2, select AIR FRY, set temperature to 200°C and set time to 25 minutes. Select SYNC. Select START/STOP to begin.
- When zone 1 time reaches 10 minutes, remove drawer from unit and top chicken with cheese. Reinsert drawer to continue cooking.
- When zone 2 time reaches 10 minutes, remove drawer from unit and shake drawer for 10 seconds. Reinsert drawer to continue cooking.
- When zone 2 time reaches 20 minutes, shake for 10 seconds. Re-insert drawer to continue cooking for another 5 minutes if necessary. Sprinkle with sea salt to serve.
