Air Fryer Chicken 

Chick-Fil-A Sauce

Ingredients:

Chicken
One Cut Up Chicken or an assortment of chicken thighs and chicken drumsticks.
Buttermilk Marinade:

2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2-3 tablespoons Buffalo Hot Sauce (optional)
Flour Dredging Mixture:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions:
Buttermilk mixture: Add the buttermilk, salt, black pepper, and Buffalo Hot Sauce to a large mixing bowl. Mix well. Then add your chicken. 

Place saran wrap over the chicken, and refrigerate for about 3 to 4 hours.

Spray your air fryer basket with olive oil.

In a large Ziploc bag, add the flour, cornstarch, salt, paprika, onion powder, basil, white pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.

Then one by one, remove the chicken pieces and shake off the excess buttermilk mixture and then place them into the Ziploc bag. 

As you coat them in the flour mixture, add them to the greased air fryer basket, careful not to crowd the basket.

Spray the chicken with olive oil (this helps crisp up the skin for the air fryer)

Set the temperature to 390 degrees F for 25 minutes, halfway flip the chicken, and spray the chicken coating with olive oil spray.

Check the internal temperature before removing the chicken; it should be 165 degrees F.
Plate, serve, and enjoy!
