Ingredients
- 1 pound frog legs, fresh or frozen
- 2 cups buttermilk, or milk
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning , (for milk mixture)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder, (for milk mixture)
- 2 cups yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Old Bay Seasoning
Instructions
- Place the frog legs into a large bowl, add the milk or the buttermilk to the bowl. Then add the Old Bay Seasoning and Garlic Powder. Cover and place into the refrigerator for about an hour.
- In another bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour, and another 1 teaspoon of Old Bay Seasoning. Mix well.
- As you remove the frog legs from the milk/buttermilk marinate, let the milk drip off, and then place the frog legs into the cornmeal batter, repeat with the milk marinade and again in the cornmeal mixture.
- As you double coat them, place them into a greased air fryer basket, sprayed with cooking spray. Set the temperature to 400 degrees F, air fryer setting for 5 minutes, flip and air fry for another 3-5 minutes. Until fully cooked.
- If you really want them to crisp up, I would suggest spraying them generously with cooking spray.
- Plate, serve, and enjoy!
