Description

Delicious and healthy chicken drumsticks cooked in an air fryer for crispy skin and minimal oil.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Chicken drumsticks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Herbs (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken drumsticks with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and any herbs you prefer.
  3. Toss the chicken until it is evenly coated with the seasoning.
  4. Place the drumsticks in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  5. Cook for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and is crispy on the outside.
  6. Remove from the air fryer and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket for even cooking. Experiment with different seasonings or marinades.
