Before cooking chicken drumsticks in an air fryer, it is better to marinate them in any convenient way. Then the chicken meat will turn out even more delicious and soft. I share a step-by-step recipe!
Ingredients
- Chicken legs - 6-8 pieces
- Salt - to taste
- Spices and seasonings - to taste
- Mayonnaise - 2 tbsp.l .
- Garlic - 2 cloves
- Mustard - 1 tbsp.l.
- Vegetable oil - 1 art.l.
Step-by-step cooking recipe
Wash and dry the chilled chicken drumsticks, remove all excess.
Salt the shins and sprinkle with spices, for example, for chicken or for barbecue.
Add mayonnaise, mustard and peeled grated garlic.
Mix so that the legs are evenly covered with all the marinade ingredients. It is best to cover the bowl with a film and leave the chicken for marinating for an hour or two in a cool place. But if there is no time, then you can immediately proceed to the next step.
Grease the grill of the air fryer with vegetable oil. Put the legs in one layer, close to each other. Bake at 180 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
After 20 minutes, it is better to open the baking container and check the readiness of the legs. It is important not to over-dry them, so the baking time will depend on the size of the shins.
Serve the legs hot with sauce, vegetables and herbs.
