Sweet Bourbon Glaze Chicken Legs in the Air Fryer | Easy Recipe

Wash and dry 5 chicken legs.

Coat chicken legs with olive oil, mixing them around for an even coating.

Apply a generous coating of University of Q all-purpose rub to the chicken legs.

Preheat the air fryer to 390°F for 4 minutes.

Spray the air fryer basket with additional oil.

Place the chicken legs in the air fryer basket.

Cook the chicken legs at 390°F for 5 minutes.

Flip the chicken legs over after 5 minutes and observe the color.

Cook the chicken legs for another 5 minutes at 390°F.

Reduce the air fryer temperature to 300°F and cook for an additional 6 minutes.

Check the internal temperature of the chicken legs with an instant thermometer, aiming for 165°F.

If the temperature is below 165°F, rotate the chicken legs and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

After 2-3 minutes, remove the chicken legs and baste them with sweet bourbon glaze.

Return the chicken legs to the air fryer for a few more minutes to let the glaze set.

Check the internal temperature again, ensuring it reaches at least 165°F.
