In this blog post, we'll discuss how to make crispy chicken in the air fryer.
Ingredients:
- 4 chicken thighs or drumsticks
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions:
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F / 204°C for 5 minutes.
In a shallow bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each chicken piece in the beaten eggs, then coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, making sure to cover all sides.
Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray, then place the chicken pieces in the basket, making sure they are not touching each other.
Cook the chicken in the air fryer for 20-25 minutes, flipping them over halfway through the cooking time.
Once the chicken is cooked through and crispy, remove it from the air fryer and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

If you're using larger chicken pieces, increase the cooking time by a few minutes.
