Ingredients

  • 8 chicken drumsticks
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees for 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl combine all the spices and herbs, set mixture aside.

  3. 3

    Place chicken in a plastic resealable bag or bowl. Add olive oil and toss to coat.

  4. 4

    Add spice mixture to bag or bowl and toss to coat chicken legs.

  5. 5

    Place chicken drumsticks in air fryer basket and cook at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.

  6. 6

    Flip chicken drumsticks over and cook for an additional 10 minutes at 400 degrees.

  7. 7

    Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, if it is not this temperature add a few more minutes of cooking time and check after that. I actually prefer my chicken legs about 180-190 degrees so they fall off the bone and there’s no bloody spots around the bone.
