2-Ingredient Air Fryer Fried Chicken
Ingredients
- 4 chicken drumsticks or chicken thighs
- 1 cup self-rising flour
Instructions
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels.
- Put the self-rising flour in a bowl.
- Coat each piece of chicken well with the flour. Press the flour onto the chicken so it sticks.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3 minutes.
- Place the chicken pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Do not overcrowd.
- Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 25–30 minutes, turning the chicken halfway through.
- Cook until the outside is golden and crispy and the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) inside.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then serve hot.
Tip
For extra crispy chicken, spray the flour-coated chicken lightly with cooking oil before air frying.
