Ingredients

  • 5 chicken drumsticks

Seasoning

  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Pat the drumsticks dry with a paper towel. Then, rub oil around the drumsticks then sprinkle the seasoning mix heavily around each drumstick. You can only cover about 4-5 drumsticks with the measurements provided for the seasoning.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 375℉.
  • When the air fryer is ready add the drumsticks and do not stack or crowd them. They should have at least an inch between each one.
  • Air fry for 18-20 minutes but this will vary with the size of the drumsticks. Turn them halfway through the cook.
  • Once finished allowing them to cool a bit before serving.
