Air-fry on 180C for 20 minutes until browned. Use tongs to turn over. Air fry for a further 8-10 minutes until cooked through. Allow to stand in air-fryer for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine tomatoes, cucumber and onion in a bowl. Place rice on plates and top with chicken. Brush chicken with juices left on foil. Serve with salad, Raita, lemon wedges and roti.

Tips & Hints:

Shread leftover Maryland’s to use in sandwiches or in a salad
Try using chicken tenderloins, placing in a single layer over foil and reducing cooking time to 8 minutes turn over and air-fry 5-6 minutes on other side, making sure chicken is cooked through after standing for 3 minutes.
To make your own raita, grate cucumber and mix with salt. Stand for 5 minutes and squeeze out excess liquid and add to a mixing bowl
Add yoghurt, mint, cumin and lemon juice; and mix well. Spoon into a serving bowl and sprinkle the top with cayenne pepper and garnish with mint
