Combine the spices in a small bowl. Then, place the chicken in a separate large bowl.
Drizzle the oil over the chicken, then use your hands to make sure it's completely coated. Next, pour the dry rub over the chicken and again, use your hands to make sure the chicken is coated in the spices on both sides.
Spray your air fryer with nonstick spray, and place the chicken in a single layer. Air fry the chicken at 400° for 12 minutes, then use kitchen tongs to flip it over and cook it for 8 more minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°. Enjoy!
