Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Cayenne pepper
  • ½ tablespoon light brown Sugar
  • ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Oregano
  • ½ teaspoon Cumin Powder
  • 8-10 Chicken Drumsticks
  • 1 tablespoon Oil (to brush)

Instructions

  • Pat dry chicken and remove any extra moisture from the chicken. 
  • Mix all the dry seasoning ingredients. 
  • In a Ziplock bag add Chicken and the Seasoning mix. Shake well to coat chicken with seasoning. Let it rest for 30 minutes. 
  • Meanwhile, preheat the Air-fryer for 10 mins at 200-degree Celsius. ( set the temperature to 200 degrees Celsius and set the timer to 10 mins).
  • Arrange spice-rubbed drumsticks in a single layer spacing little apart from each other in the air fryer pan. 
  • Cook for 10 mins, flip and lightly brush with oil. Air fry again for another 10 minutes. The chicken legs look roasted from all the sides. 
  • Repeat the same with the rest of the chicken.
