Ingredients
8 chicken drumsticks
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon dried parsley
1 cup barbeque sauce
Instructions
-
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
-
In a bowl, combine the chicken drumsticks with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and parsley. Toss until the drumsticks are evenly coated.
-
Arrange the drumsticks in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 10 minutes.
-
After 10 minutes, flip the drumsticks, baste with BBQ sauce, and cook for another 5 minutes.
-
Flip again, baste with more BBQ sauce, and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
-
Remove the drumsticks from the air fryer, serve, and add more BBQ sauce if desired.
Notes
-
For a spicy version, swap BBQ sauce with buffalo sauce or a mix of hot sauce and butter.
-
For extra crunch, dip the drumsticks in a seasoned flour mixture before air frying.
-
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 4-5 minutes.
