             KFC Chicken drums copycat

Like in the post before, I like Kentucky fried chicken. Here is the recipe for the chicken drums but made in an Air fryer. You can, of course, just regular fry in oil, but I was looking for a less fatty option. We liked it a lot and the chicken was nice moist. You will have to prepare ahead of time though.

This is what you need:

- Chicken drumsticks

- 1 Cup Buttermilk

- 2 Eggs

- 2 Cups of Flour

- 2/3 TSP Salt

-1/2 TSP Thyme

- 1/2 TSP Basil

- 1/3 TSP Oregano

- 1 TSP Celery Salt

- 2 TSP Garlic Salt

- 1 TSP Black Pepper

- 1 TSP ground Mustard

- 4 TSP Paprika

- 1 TSP ground Ginger

- 3 TSP white Pepper (if you like the spicy version. If you like original, don't add the Pepper)

This is how you do it:

Soak the chicken in the Buttermilk over night. 

In 1 bowl, whisk together the 2 eggs. In a separate bowl, add the Flour and all the spices and mix well. 

Prepare an oven and preheat to 390 degrees. Lay nonstick oven paper on the tray so the chicken don't stick to the bottom. 

Remove the chicken drums one at the time and drench it first in the flour, then in the egg and a second time in the flour. Place it on the oven tray. Spray them with Oil from a can. Air fry it for around 13-15 min and then turn them around, spray again with Oil and let fry another 13-15 min.. Internal Temp should be at least a 165 Fahrenheit.  

Guten Appetit
