These juicy and succulent Air Fryer Chicken Drumsticks or Legs are a treat to our tastebuds. Nothing much actually required for this. Instead of taking the breast part, I have used tender Chicken Legs for this delicious meal which is complete in itself.
Though it's simple, the marination plays an important role in getting such succulent and juicy Chicken Legs.
That is why it's highly recommended to marinate them overnight.
And it goes well with any Bread. Not only that I had served these alongside Cumin Rice for my family. It's absolutely divine and lip-smacking.

And the special occasions demand such beautiful spreads. That's the reason why I have selected this particular Chicken dish for my family and a few closeknit friends this Ramadan 26 as it's a family favourite. I dedicate this dish to my beautiful mother and wish her a very Happy Women's Day.

An incredibly innovative twist by me in using Korean Gochujang paste along with a few other ingredients for this amazing dish makes it stand apart from others in more ways than one.
That's it. As simple as that. Not too heavy marination. Just a few simple and easy ingredients go into making this beautiful looking meal.
So let's get rolling with the making process.

Happy Women's Day!
Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

20-25 minutes

1

Make slits in the chicken legs or drumsticks at first. Add all the ingredients as mentioned for the marination. It needs to be marinated for almost an hour if in a hurry. Otherwise it's always best if marinated overnight.
2

Preheat your air fryer. Place the marinated drumsticks side by side with a little gap. Do not over crowd the basket. Bake on 180° for a good 20-25 minutes for each batch.
3

Meanwhile prepare a sauce with the ingredients as mentioned under it's heading. In between the baking spree, baste the chicken drumsticks with this sauce for juicy, succulent meat.
4

Serve these piping hot with more of this flavourful sauce drizzled on top at Iftaar this Ramadan 26 or just about any given day to your loved ones. Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
