-Cost of this meal is $3.20 based on the servings listed above priced at a medium cost location Safeway.
-This recipe uses your air fryer to cook all 3 items. If your air fryer basket is not that large, then either cook the broccoli in the microwave (steam for 3-4 minutes) or cook the broccoli first and then reheat when it is time to plate.
-Customize this to your taste by adding your favorite BBQ sauce, Ranch, or Siracha in place of the ketchup and fry sauce I used.
