DIRECTIONS
To make the marinade,
combine rosemary,
garlic, lemon juice,
maple syrup, honey,
salt, pepper, and canola
oil and mix well.
Coat chicken with half
the marinade, either in
a walled baking dish or
a large resealable plastic
bag. Marinate in the
refrigerator at least
30 minutes and up
to 8 hours.
When marinating is
complete, nest the Ninja®
Roast Tray in the Ninja
Sheet Pan, then place
chicken on the tray.
For best results, allow
chicken to sit at room
temperature up to 1 hour
before cooking.
Toss squash with
remaining marinade,
then arrange evenly in
the air fry basket.
Install the wire rack
on Level 1. Plug
thermometer into jack,
select WHOLE ROAST
and set temperature to
375°F. Select PRESET,
then use the FUNCTION
button to select
CHICKEN. The unit will
default to WELL to cook
chicken to a food-safe
temperature.
Use thermometer
placement instructions
on page 7 to insert the
thermometer. Press
START/STOP to begin
preheating.
