Notes

- For softer curls, pull the halal smoked turkey strips when it looks just shy of your ideal crispness, as it will firm up slightly as it cools.
- Store cooled twisted turkey halal smoked turkey strips in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheat leftover twisted turkey halal smoked turkey strips in the air fryer at 320 degrees F for 2 to 3 minutes until warmed and crisp.
