Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken legs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  2. In a bowl, mix olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken legs.
  4. Place the chicken legs in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
