Ingredients:
Chicken drumsticks (because bland poultry is so yesterday)
Your favorite barbecue sauce (because bland is banned in Flavorville)
Spice rub (mix of equal parts paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper)
Instructions:
Preheat the Air Fryer: Ignite your air fryer's magic and set the temperature to 375°F (190°C). As it heats up, let's get those drumsticks ready for their saucy transformation.
Drumsticks Prep: Pat your chicken drumsticks dry with a paper towel, because we're about to give them a flavor makeover that'll make them the star of the plate.
Spice it Up: Generously coat your drumsticks with the spice rub, massaging those flavors in like you're giving them a spa day. This medley of spices will create a symphony of taste as your drumsticks sizzle.
Into the Air Fryer Arena: Place those seasoned drumsticks in the air fryer basket like they're stepping onto a flavor stage. Make sure they have room to crisp up and cook evenly.
Fry with Flair: Slide the basket into the air fryer with the confidence of a seasoned chef ready to orchestrate a taste sensation. Cook those drumsticks for around 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure juicy perfection.
The Saucy Finale: Ding! Your chicken drumsticks are ready to embrace their saucy destiny. Carefully take them out of the air fryer and coat them in your favorite barbecue sauce like you're painting a masterpiece of flavor.
Savor the Juicy Bliss: Sink your teeth into that perfectly cooked drumstick like you're savoring a bite of saucy heaven. Let the tender meat and flavorful spices take center stage, creating a taste sensation that'll leave you craving more.
Pro Tip: Elevate your drumstick experience by letting the seasoned drumsticks sit for a while before air frying. This allows the spices to work their magic and infuse every bite with flavor.
