Step 1

Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 370 degrees F and spray the basket with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Rub the outside of the chicken with the olive oil.

Step 3

Sprinkle the chicken inside and outside with 1 tablespoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Fill the cavity with the herbs, garlic and lemon. Put the chicken in the basket breast-side up, pushing it down so it does not touch the top of the fryer.

Step 4

Roast the chicken until it is golden and crispy and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh, avoiding bone, reads 165 degrees F, 50 to 60 minutes.
