2 boneless, skinless chicken legs . 1 cup buttermilk. 1 cup all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon paprika. 1 teaspoon garlic powder. 1 teaspoon onion powder. 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme. 1/2 teaspoon dried basil. 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon black pepperCooking spray or oil spray.
Instructions:
1.Marinate Chicken:Place the chicken legs in a bowl and pour buttermilk over them. Ensure the chicken is fully coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to overnight in the refrigerator.

2.Cook:Air fry the chicken at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
3.Serve:Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve the air-fried KFC-style fried chicken legs with your favorite dipping sauce.
