  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

Deliciously crispy air fryer chicken drumsticks that are juicy on the inside and perfectly seasoned on the outside. A quick and easy dinner option ready in under 30 minutes!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 chicken drumsticks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, oregano, and thyme.
  3. Add the chicken drumsticks to the bowl and toss well to coat them evenly with the seasoning mixture.
  4. Place the seasoned drumsticks in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded.
  5. Cook the drumsticks in the air fryer for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  6. Once cooked, remove the drumsticks from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispy skin, pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels before seasoning.
  • You can adjust the seasoning to your preference by adding more or less of your favorite spices.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce or side dishes.
