Air fryer chicken drumsticks are delicious, tasty, and quick to prepare. You can serve air-fried chicken drumsticks with air-fried potatoes or with cooked or raw vegetables, depending on your preference. We like the roasted chicken drumsticks with nice, crispy skin; if you prefer them softer, just reduce the cooking time by 10 minutes. If you like, you can try the Pan-Roasted Chicken, which is also delicious and easy to make, a good alternative to using the air fryer. Cooking time may vary depending on the type of air fryer you use; this is the AIR FRYER I use.

How to Make Air Fryer Chicken Drumsticks
Let’s start preparing the air fryer chicken drumsticks: place the drumsticks in a bowl, add extra virgin olive oil, and massage them so that all the drumsticks are well-coated.
Add the herbs, chili pepper, and salt, and massage well to ensure the drumsticks absorb the flavors.
Add the white wine and lemon juice. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, occasionally taking out the drumsticks to mix them so they absorb the marinade.
Place the drumsticks in the air fryer basket, brush them with the marinade juice, and cook for 10 minutes at 392°F, take out the basket, turn the drumsticks, and brush them again with the marinade juice, cook for another 10 minutes at 392°F, then continue cooking for an additional 20 minutes at 356°F.
Cooking time may vary depending on the type of air fryer, but they should be well-cooked and golden. Once cooked, serve them hot.
