Air Fryer Spicey Fried Chicken Cosori 5.8qt AirFryer

Season 2 pounds of chicken legs with cayenne pepper, paprika, red pepper chips, pink salt, black pepper, and garlic. Let it sit for about 2 to 3 hours.

Use a bag to coat the chicken legs with Hooters wing breading, shaking it up to ensure even coverage.

Spray the coated chicken legs with avocado oil for a final coating.

Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.

Place the chicken legs in the air fryer basket. Set the timer for 26 minutes, as chicken thighs take longer to cook.

At the halfway mark (13 minutes), the air fryer will alert you to shake the basket. Flip the chicken legs over at this time.

After 26 minutes, check the chicken. If it's looking dark, it might be due to the seasoning. Ensure the internal temperature is around 178°F to 180°F.

Let the chicken cool off before serving.
