Ingredients
- 6 chicken drumsticks
- ½ cup water cold
- 2-3 tablespoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil
Chicken Marinade:
- 1 tablespoon white wine or rice vinegar
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 teaspoon Regular soy sauce
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
Dry Batter:
- 1 ½ cup Potato Starch or sub with tapioca starch or cornstarch
- 2 teaspoon curry powder Japanese kind recommended
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Optional:
- lemon juice to serve with chicken
Instructions
- Season chicken drumsticks with marinade ingredients and massage into drumsticks with hands. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes as you work on preparing the batter.
- In a large bowl, add dry batter ingredients and whisk well. Then take 1 measuring cup of dry batter and transfer to a separate bowl. Set that aside for later.
- Then to your REMAINING dry ingredients (the bowl with less dry batter), whisk in ½ cup cold water to create a wet batter. You should now have a dry and wet batter in two separate bowls.
- With clean hands, dredge drumsticks into dry batter first ensuring no empty spots. Then give the wet batter another whisk and dredge chicken into wet batter and then back into dry batter. If the wet batter becomes too stiff (which is very normal), add another ¼ cup cold water to loosen it.
- Lightly spray air fryer basket with oil. Place coated drumsticks to air fryer basket giving each one enough room. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to air fry in multiple batches. Important: Try to angle the drumsticks so that the least amount of surface area touches the weaved basket as this can cause for batter to tear away from chicken if you’re not gentle flipping over it in next steps.
- Spray or drizzle 1 tablespoon vegetable oil all over the chicken drumsticks.
- Air fry on one side at 375 F for 11 minutes until crispy and golden. Then gently flip over with tongs being careful not to remove any coating. Spray or drizzle remaining oil on the other side of the drumsticks. Air fry at 375 F for another 11 minutes.
- Gently remove with tongs. Serve & enjoy with fresh lemon juice!
