We all love quick & easy meals, especially when its super delicious without all of the mess. That being said, here is my Air Fried Chicken Drumsticks recipe which I know for sure that you will enjoy!

I have opted to using my Instant Vortex Air Fryer Oven for this recipe, unfortunately I haven’t tried them in the basket air fryer (Instant Vortex Air Fryer) but I am sure they will turn out just as good.

These drumsticks are crispy on the outside & moist on the inside – with not a drop of oil used.

Air Fried Chicken Drumsticks:

• 8 chicken drumsticks
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon chicken spice
• ½ teaspoon garlic flakes or garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon chili powder or masala
• 1 teaspoon coriander (dhania) powder
• Woolworths Ghost Chilli Seasoning – as much or little as preferred

Method:

1. Bring out the chicken drumsticks.
2. 
3. Remove them from the packaging & rinse them well.
4. 
5. Working with one drumstick at a time, use a sharp knife & cut alongside the bone.
6. 
7. 
8. Don’t go all the way through, just cut either side of the bone so that the chicken is a bit opened.
9. 
10. This method is butterflying the drumsticks.
11. 
12. Continue this process until all the drumsticks are butterflied.

16. 
17. This is what the Ghost Chilli Seasoning looks like.
18. 
19. Give the spices a mix.
20. 
21. Generously sprinkle half of the spices over the chicken. There’s no need to rub it into the chicken.
22. 
23. 
24. Flip the drumsticks over & sprinkle over the remaining spice.
25. 
26.
