This Ninja single-basket air fryer is really awesome! I can cook the most amazing chicken breasts which come out moist and tender not dry at all. Last night I did a steak which came out perfectly as well. I cooked vegetables in it and they came out perfectly too. It's fast, easy clean-up so you're not left with a bunch of pots and pans. Since this is a single basket you can only cook one thing at Marie · canadiantire.ca
