Air-Fried Sticky Barbecue Chicken

A no-mess, super quick, sweet n' smoky chicken that's out of the oven in 20 minutes. If you like it hot, add a dash of Tabasco, some fresh chopped chili or a garnish of pickled jalapeños. Serve with salad for a midweek meal or with French fries and slaw to watch the next ball game.

Ingredients


Measurements:

  • smoked paprika icon
    2 tbsp smoked paprika
  • garlic powder icon
    1 tsp garlic powder
  • onion powder icon
    1 tsp onion powder
  • kosher salt icon
    1 tsp kosher salt
  • bone in and skin on chicken pieces (breast, thighs and drumstick about 8 pieces) icon
    4 lb bone in and skin on chicken pieces (breast, thighs and drumstick about 8 pieces)
  • barbecue sauce icon
    1 cup (10 oz) barbecue sauce

Instructions

  • 1Insert the wire rack into position 4. Set the oven to Air Fry, Super Convection, 400°F, for 18 minutes and press Start to preheat. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.
  • 2Place the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and salt in a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Add the barbecue sauce and turn to coat.
  • 3For easy cleaning and to avoid burning, line the roasting pan with foil. Place the chicken, skin side up, in the pan. Scrape out any excess sauce that’s in the bowl and spread over the chicken.
  • 4Once preheated, place the pan in the oven and air fry for 18 minutes. When the oven signals at the end of cooking, adjust the oven to Broil, High, for 2 minutes and press Start.
  • 5The chicken should be lightly charred and is ready when a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part, away from the bone, reads a minimum of 165°F. If not, broil a little longer.
    Tip: The size of the drumstick can alter the cooking time. For best results test for doneness 5-10 minutes before the end of the cook. It may need a little more or a little less extra cooking time, best to keep an eye on it.
  • 6Remove the chicken from the oven, spoon over some of the pan juices and serve.
