Description

These Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Chicken Legs are so flavorful and cooked in the air fryer with just garlic, parmesan cheese. Then they're brushed before being served up on a bed of freshly grated cheddar for that extra kick! You won't be able to stop at one when these crispy, juicy bites arrive at your doorstep in 30 minutes flat - we know because we've tried them ourselves ;)

Ingredients 

  • 1 pound chicken drumsticks
  • 1/3 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Cooking spray

Instructions

  • Add the parmesan cheese, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper in a large Ziploc Bag. Mix well.
  • Use a paper towel, and dry your chicken legs on, then coat them with baking powder.
  • Either spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray or line your air fryer basket with parchment paper.
  • Set your chicken on top, set the temperature to 370 degrees F, air fryer setting, for 25 minutes, flipping halfway during the cooking process.
  • Check your chicken with a meat thermometer. When the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, remove it from the air fryer and rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!
