Barbecue Chicken Legs in the Air Fryer

Serves 4 in about 35 minutes. The pot starts with paprika, then bbq sauce.

Ingredients

  • 8 pieces chicken drumsticks
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (sweet or smoked)
  • ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup bbq sauce (your favorite)

Method

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano and olive oil. Stir in the chicken and coat the pieces evenly with the spices and oil.
  2. Set the seasoned chicken pieces directly into the air fryer tray and cook them at 380°F for 25 minutes. Flip the chicken over at the 13 instant mark (cook time may vary with the size/thickness of the chicken pieces).
  3. After 25 minutes, take the chicken out and coat it on both sides with barbecue sauce. Use tongs to help you grip and coat the chicken on the all sides.
  4. Set the chicken back into the air fryer for 5 minutes at 400°F.
  5. Plate immediately.
