Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 5 Chicken Legs (skin-on)
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Salt

For the honey garlic glaze

  • 1 tablespoon Butter or use olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 4 Garlic Cloves finely chopped

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, mix together olive oil, paprika, black pepper, salt.
  • Add in the chicken drumsticks and mix well. The legs should be well coated in the seasoning mix.
  • In a preheated air fryer basket (I have used an Instant Vortex here), place the chicken legs in a single layer, without crowding them.
  • Air fry the chicken legs at 390 F for 18 minutes. At the 10-minute mark, take out the basket and flip the chicken over so that they cook evenly.
  • Separately, make the honey garlic glaze. In a small saucepan, heat butter until melted, add the garlic cloves and saute until aromatic (2-3 minutes). Add the honey saute for a minute more and and turn off the heat.
  • Take out the air fried chicken drumsticks and add to a bowl with the honey garlic glaze. Toss the chicken drumsticks until well coated in the glaze. Serve immediately.
