No, not really, it’s usually made in a pan, not an air fryer, not a deep fryer.

The same could be said about fried chicken though.

That’s usually in a deep fryer.

Username checks out ... You know there is a process that predates countertop kitchen appliances called pan frying. It's pretty easy, you just fill a pan with a few inches of oil no need to get all deep with it, heat that shit up until you get bubbles from a wooden spoon. Then drop the chicken in and cook for a bit then flip to cook on the otherside.
And it doesn't stop with just chicken bro. I've made doughnuts, corn dogs, fry bread, and funnel cake. All with this same process of just using a pan and some oil. Its the fucking lifehack the restaurant industry doesn't want you to know. They are working so hard to get this fact scrubbed from the internet bro.

Wow all these years I've been cooking it for dinner on a pan on a stove top.

Fried just means cooked in hot fat or oil. Grilled means cooked on a grill.

I had this thought last night so your theory is broken.

In my neck of the woods we make cheese on toast - this is made under an overhead grill, what americans call a broiler I think? Anyway it makes the cheese brown which is delicious. That said, I have nothing against the sandwich form which we would call a jaffle (we invented the device for that purpose alone), or a toastie (simply a toasted sandwich) which can be made with a device or in the pan...
