Instant Vortex Air Fryer Chicken Legs in Basket
Instant Vortex Air Fryer Chicken Legs in Basket
This is a super easy and yummy way to cook chicken legs that come out perfect every time!
Simply prep your legs by putting a little olive oil and seasoning on them. Coat well.
Add them to the rotisserie basket.
Air Fry at 375′ for 10 minutes. Check halfway for doneness. These cook pretty quick!
They are done when the temp hits 165′. I went over some and they were still super juicy and perfect! With chicken, I always cook a little more than I should!
