Notes

Brine for Chicken
For every 4 legs place 1 c of water and ½ T Salt and ½ T of Sugar in a Ziploc bag. Brine for at least 4 hours or what I like to do is brine them and place them in the freezer in the brine.
To air fry these chicken legs, Air Fry at 400 for 20 minutes flipping at the 10 minute mark.
To oven roast these chicken legs , cook at 400 for 45 minutes.
