Ingredients
- 1 bakery-style bread roll sub roll or soft white roll
- 1 cup shredded rotisserie chicken
- ½-¾ cup grated cheese Tasty or Colby
- 2-3 Tbsp caramelized onions
- 1 spring onion finely diced
- chicken gravy for dipping
Instructions
- Slice the bread roll lengthways, but not all the way through. Open it up like a book and lay it flat.
- Spread the caramelized onions over the inside of the roll. Top with grated cheese — this helps everything melt together beautifully.
- Scatter the shredded rotisserie chicken over the cheese.
- Place the open roll into the air fryer basket. Air fry at 180°C for 3-4 minutes. Cook until the cheese is melted. Make sure the roll is golden and the chicken is heated through.
- Remove from the air fryer and sprinkle over the diced spring onions.
- Dish up with a bowl of hot chicken gravy on the side. This is your dunking station! It’s the star of the show.
Notes
Stacey's Kitchen Tips
- BBQ chicken works great: Adds a smokey, delicious flavour.
- Make it extra crispy: Add an extra minute in the air fryer for golden edges.
- Add bacon: Crispy bacon pieces take this to the next level.
- Change the cheese: Try mozzarella for stretch or Tasty for flavour.
- Spicy Gravy Dunker: Add a drizzle of sriracha before air frying.
- Garlic Melt Dunker: Brush the roll with garlic butter before assembling.
- Loaded Chicken Dunker: Add sautéed mushrooms or roasted capsicum.
- Roast Dinner Dunker: Add leftover roasted vegetables.
