I love cooking with an air fryer! You can make delicious, crispy food without all the oil and deep frying of a traditional fryer. This Air Fryer Chicken Legs recipe has a perfect blend of seasoning in a crispy exterior.
If you don't have an air fryer, this one is a popular one to buy. You can even buy accessories to go along with it.
Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, combine all dry seasonings.
Coat chicken legs in olive oil. Sprinkle dry seasoning blend over chicken to cover all sides.
Place the chicken in the air fryer basket and cook at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Turn chicken legs and continue to cook for an additional 2 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chicken legs and wattage of the air fryer.
To ensure doneness, check chicken legs for an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
