Air Fryer Fried Chicken (video)
  1. In a small bowl, mix together the Seasoning Mix ingredients until combined.

  2. Add the chicken to a tray and season both sides of the chicken with half of the seasoning mix. Add the chicken to a bowl with the buttermilk and hot sauce and mix. Let the chicken sit for 15 minutes (or as long as overnight for more flavor) while you prepare the Dry Batter.

  3. In a large bowl add the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and remaining half of the Seasoning Mix. Whisk together to combine. Add 2 tablespoons of water or the chicken marinade to the Dry batter and mix them with your hands to create craggily bits.

  4. Dredge the chicken pieces in the Dry Batter until fully coated, pressing with your hands to ensure the batter sticks to the chicken. Spray the chicken generously with neutral oil spray on both sides.

  5. Preheat the air fryer to 375F, then place the chicken skin side down and air fry for 12 minutes (if you air fryer basket can't fit all the chicken in one batch, cook the thighs together first). Flip and give the top side another spray of neutral oil and air fry for another 6-8 minutes until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165F. Let cool for a few minutes then enjoy!
