Ingredients
8
chicken drumsticks
3
medium baking potatoes (about 600g), cut into 1.5cm wide wedges
1Tbsp.
thyme leaves, roughly chopped
2tsp.
sweet smoked paprika
2
garlic cloves, crushed
Finely grated zest and juice 1 lemon
2tsp.
vegetable oil
2Tbsp.
runny honey
salad leaves, to serve
Directions
Step 1In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients, except the honey and salad leaves, with plenty of seasoning, until well combined and evenly coated. Preheat air fryer to 200°C.
Step 2Put the potatoes into the air fryer (in the crisper basket, if your model has one). Close the lid/drawer and cook for 10min. Meanwhile, add the honey to the chicken bowl and mix to coat.
Step 3Shake/turn the potatoes, then add chicken to the air fryer and continue to cook for 15-20min, shaking/turning every 5min or so, or until both the chicken and potatoes are cooked through. Serve with salad.
If your air fryer is a two-drawer model, cook the potato wedges and chicken in separate drawers. If it’s a one-drawer or lidded model, simply arrange the chicken on top of the potatoes. Whichever model you have, shaking or turning everything regularly is key to getting the best results.
