This looks sooo good. I’m going to try it asap but I’m thinking I’ll air fry it instead of in oil. Seems like if I spray the chicken with olive oil it should turn out just as good. I’ll let you know. More and more we need air fryer friendly recipes!

If anyone knows where to get the recipe for cheesecake factory’s meatball garlic bread with that spread that has cilantro sauce on it I would love to have it. That is the best stuff ever. I know the spread is made from ricotta and sour cream (my waiter told me) but not sure if there is something else in it or the ratio or anything like that. It is then served with the cilantro sauce drizzled over it.

Marinara sauce and add heavy whipping cream.
