Air Fryer Fried Chicken KFC Copycat
Ingredients
10 chicken drumsticks or thighs
1 cup Buttermilk
2 eggs
2 cups flour
2/3 teaspoon salt
Half teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon basil
1/3 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon celery salt
Teaspoon black pepper
One teaspoon dried mustard
4 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
3 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
Soak the chicken legs in buttermilk for up to 24 hours before starting this recipe.
Beat the eggs in one bowl and the flour and spices in a second bowl. Stir the spices well into the flour and beat the eggs.
Place an oven-safe cooling rack overtop of a baking sheet.
Remove chicken one piece at a time from buttermilk.
Dredge each chicken leg in the flour, then the eggs, and then the flour once again. Place the coated drumstick on the cooling rack and repeat with remaining chicken.
Preheat Air Fryer to 390°.
Place Parchment round in bottom of air fryer so chicken doesn't stick to bottom.
Lay chicken in a single layer in Air Fryer so the pieces aren't touching.
Air Fry for 13 minutes. Flip over. If there are any dry spots where the flour is showing, you can spritz with avocado oil. Fry for another 13 minutes. Check that the internal temperature is 165°. If not then cook for 5 minutes at a time until done.
Enjoy!
