Description

Crispy and flavorful air fryer chicken drumsticks made with a simple spice mix and cooked to perfection in under 15 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 chicken drumsticks
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 200C/400F.
  2. In a small bowl, add the baking powder, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and brown sugar, and mix well.
  3. Pat dry the chicken drumsticks. Toss the drumsticks through the spice mix then drizzle the oil all over.
  4. Place the drumsticks in the air fryer basket and cook for 8 minutes, flip, and cook for a further 6-8 minutes, or until cooked and crispy.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite sides.

Notes

For best results, make sure to pat the chicken drumsticks dry before coating with spices. This helps them crisp up better in the air fryer.
