AIR FRYER BBQ CHICKEN LEGS



Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Legs image

As chicken legs will vary in size and thickness, so will the cooking times. If you're cooking really large or thick drumsticks or thighs, add a few more minutes and pierce the chicken at it's thickest part to make sure the juices run clean. Use whatever BBQ sauce you love.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 pkg fresh chicken drum sticks
1 bottle good quality bbq sauce for chicken

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat your fryer to 400'F for 5 minutes.
  • 2. Coat the Drum Sticks with your favourite BBQ sauce. I made my own, but any commercial sauce will work.
  • 3. Once preheated place the chicken drum sticks into the hot air fryer basket. I generally put 3 in at a time, but it depends on the size of the drum stick. If you have smaller ones you could probably add one more. Don't over crowd them, it's essential that the hot air circulates well around the food.
  • 4. At 400'F cook the chicken drum sticks for 20 minutes. Then flip over and brush with some more BBQ sauce Lower the heat to 300'F and cook for Check the chicken's temperature after 15 minutes to see how it's progressing.
  • 5. Using a meat thermometer (not touching the bone) check to see if the drum sticks are done. They should register at least 165'F. If it's lower put it back into the fryer and cook for another 5 minutes. I had to do this a few times because my drum sticks were huge. Be careful if you use smaller drumsticks, don't let them overcook. Might be good to check them with the thermometer after the first 15 minutes.
  • 6. Once the drum sticks are done let them sit for about 5-10 minutes, then dig in. These are totally delicious and I've made them many times. It's one of my favourite chicken recipes!
