Air Fryer Chicken Legs (Crispy Drumsticks Every Time)
These are the air fryer chicken legs I make when I don’t feel like thinking about dinner. Crispy skin, juicy meat, simple seasoning, and done in about 30 minutes.

Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon Oregano
- ½ teaspoon Onion powder
- 8 Chicken drumsticks
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 380F for 5 minutes. After pre-heating, spray with cooking spray (if desired).
- Add the chicken legs to a large zip-top bag or a bowl with a lid. Top with the kosher salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, oregano and onion powder. Shake to coat.
- Place the chicken legs in the air fryer and air fry at 380F for 15 minutes.
- Turn your chicken legs over and cook for 15 minutes more.
- Cook until the skin is crispy to your liking, but I would not recommend letting the internal temperature of the chicken legs go over 180-190 degrees F using a meat thermometer.
