Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer using the preheat function or by heating it at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 minutes. Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with a paper towel and then brush them on all sides with olive oil. Sprinkle them evenly with BBQ seasoning.
- Carefully place the chicken drumsticks in the hot air fryer, making sure that they are not touching, and cook for 10 minutes.
- Brush the tops of the chicken drumsticks with BBQ sauce, flip them over, and brush the second side with BBQ sauce. Cook for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Allow the chicken to rest in the air fryer for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy immediately with your favorite sides.
Notes
- We love chicken drumsticks for this recipe, but you can swap them for your favorite cut. Boneless skinless chicken breasts will need about 8 minutes per side while bone-in skin-on chicken thighs will need about 12 minutes per side.
- If you don't have store-bought BBQ seasoning on hand, you can make this quick dry rub: 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ½ teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
