When I need to get dinner on the table quickly, this 15-minute Air Fryer Drumsticks saves the day. I lightly grease the air fryer basket, arrange the drumsticks on the tray, season with salt and pepper, and air fry for 15 minutes. While the drumsticks are in the air fryer, I can quickly stir fry the veggies and reheat leftover rice or cook pasta for some carbs. And there you have it, dinner in 30.
